Printing a stored polling document

To print a document you’ve stored for regular polling without erasing it,

press /PROGRAM, D, 3, ENTER.

Erasing a stored polling document

To erase a document you’ve stored for regular polling from your machine’s memory,

press /PROGRAM, D, 2, ENTER.

Limiting polling access to your fax machine

Your machine’s closed network setting (see page 2.64) works for polling, also. If a calling fax doesn’t “present” the proper passcode, it cannot poll from your fax.

Note: If you’re using the Block Junk Fax feature (see pages 2.64–2.65), even incoming calls which meet the passcode test must come from phone numbers you’ve approved.

Beyond the Basics

Call request

You can send or receive a fax message and have a regular phone conversation on the same call (although, not at the same time). This is called a call request. It doesn’t matter whether you’re sending the fax or receiving it. You may fax first and then talk, or talk first and then fax.

Important: For this feature to work, the remote fax machine must have a similar call-request capability. Your machine must also have an optional handset attached.

Note: Communicating this way disables “V.34” mode, causing the fax machine to handle the call in normal ITU-TGroup 3 fashion. See page 3.18 for more information.

Faxing/receiving first, then talking

To send or receive a fax first and then talk:

1

While your fax machine is sending or receiving the fax, press MONITOR/CALL.

2

At the remote fax machine, the ringer will sound after that machine receives

 

each page.

3

If someone answers at the remote fax machine, your fax machine will ring

 

several times. If so, pick up the optional handset. In a few seconds, the line

will open and you can begin your conversation.

Talking first, then sending a fax

To talk first and then send a fax:

1 When you’ve finished your phone conversation, don’t hang up.

2 Insert the document you want to fax.

3 Adjust the resolution and contrast if necessary.

4 Tell the person at the other fax machine to press START and to hang up his/her handset. Don’t hang up your handset yet!

5 When you hear fax tones, press START and hang up your fax machine’s optional handset. Your fax machine will send the document.
