Polling

Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another machine. You can use your machine to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone poll your machine.

All parties involved in polling need to set up their machines to accommodate polling. When someone polls your machine to receive a fax, they pay for the call; if you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax, you pay for the call. (See “Setup for Polling Transmit” in chapter 6.)

Secure Polling

Secure Polling is a way to keep your documents and others’ from falling into the wrong hands while the fax machines are set up for polling. You can use Secure Polling only with another Brother fax machine. Your four-digit ID number must be entered on the fax machine that polls for your documents.

Some machines do not respond to the polling function.

Setup for Polling Receive

Polling Receive is when you call another fax machine to receive a fax from it.
