Poll to receive a faxPolling allows your HP All-in-One to ask another fax machine to send a fax that it has in its queue. When you use the Poll to Receive feature, the HP All-in-One calls the designated fax machine and requests the fax from it. The designated fax machine must be set for polling and have a fax ready to send.
Note The HP All-in-One does not support polling pass codes. Polling pass codes are a security feature that requires the receiving fax machine to provide a pass code to the device it is polling in order to receive the fax. Make sure the device you are polling does not have a pass code set up (or has not changed the default pass code) or the HP All-in-One will not be able to receive the fax.
