Using Polling

What Is Polling?

Polling means one fax machine calls another fax machine and requests that the other fax machine send a document that it is holding. Unlike normal sending and receiving, in polling, the receiver always calls the sender. This is called polling to receive a document. The sender sends the document in response to a polling request by a telephone call from the receiver.

NOTE

Your machine can be set up to function in both roles. Your machine can poll to receive a document, or it can be polled to send a document that it is holding.

Before You Use Polling Receiving

Before you try to set up polling, note the following points:

•In one operation you can poll several machines. You can dial up to 210 telephone numbers, and poll those machines to receive documents that they are holding.

•You can poll a machine for a document at any time, but you may find it more useful to set your machine for polling other machines at specified times throughout the day. (See “Polling to Receive at a Preset Time,” on p. 8-5.)

•You must know if the other fax machine is holding the document under both a subaddress and password, or only a subaddress or password. You must also know the subaddress and password so you can enter them on your machine. If you do not know the subaddress or password, contact the other party.

•If the other party’s documents are registered for polling without a subaddress or password, you can still perform polling receiving.

•If the other party’s fax machine does not support ITU-T subaddress/password transactions, you can ask them to set the polling ID to ‘255’ or ‘1111 1111’ binary when the other party’s fax machine is a Canon fax machine.
