Polling to receive documents __________________
The polling feature allows you to request a document to be faxed to you from another fax machine.
The sending party only needs to make sure the document is on a fax machine and ready to be sent.
Thus, when your fax polls the other fax machine, the document is sent automatically. The fax can
poll any fax machine that supports polling.
n
Before attempting to poll a fax machine, make sure that the other fax machine supports polling.
If the other party is using a Canon fax machine which has the Polling ID function, ask them to set the
Polling ID of their fax machine to 255 (11111111 binary number).
•For details on the Polling ID, see the other party’s fax machine manual. In all other cases the Polling
ID is not a concern.
•Your fax cannot be polled by another fax machine.
Receiving documents in memory while
performing another task or when a problem
occurs _________________________________________
If your fax is performing another task or encounters a problem when receiving a document, it
automatically stores the unprinted pages in memory, and the LCD displays REC’D IN MEMORY as
well as one or more messages. For an explanation of the message(s) and details on the action to
take, see p. 9-18.
n
•You can set the fax not to store documents in memory if a problem occurs during reception
(see MEMORY RX, p. 8-4).
Once the pages are printed, they are deleted from memory.
