Using Polling
4If you don’t answer the Voice Request within 15 seconds, the machine prints the “CALL BACK MESSAGE” which has the number that made the Voice Request, and the time and date the request was made.
Polling is when one fax machine requests another machine to send a document. This is useful when the person with the original document is not in the office. 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.
1
Lift the Handset or press OHD.
2
Enter the number of the remote machine.
4There should be no documents loaded in your machine, and the remote machine must be ready for your call, that is: remote machine must be in TX- POLL mode.
When polling another fax machine to retrieve a document, the remote machine may be secured with a poll code. In this case, you cannot poll the document.
