Polling
What is Polling?
Polling is used when one fax machine requests another to
send a document. This is useful for sending unattended
faxes. The person who wants to receive the document calls
the machine holding the original and requests that the
document be sent. In other words, it “polls” the machine
holding the original.
Polling Transmission
You can program the fax machine to send documents when
polled by a remote fax machine. It is possible to assign a poll
code to prevent unauthorized polling of your machine. When
you secure your machine using a poll code, only those who
know the poll code can poll your machine.
1
Adjust the document guides to match the width of the
document. Load your document face down into the
automatic document feeder until it is grasped and pulled
into the machine. If necessary, adjust Resolution and
Contrast. For details, see page 3.13.

Press the Advanced FAX button. The display shows the

The display prompts you to enter a 4-digit poll code.
NOTE:
The poll code is preset to 0000 at the factory which
represents no poll code. If a poll code other than 0000 is
used, polling will be restricted to the WorkCentre Pro 580’s
only.
