Polling

Polling allows someone to fax a document to you without having to make the call or pay for it. There are two kinds of polling:

•Regular polling — Your fax retrieves a document from a remote fax machine.

•F-Code polling — Your fax retrieves a document stored as a file in the remote fax machine. To do this, you must be communicating with another F-code-compatible fax machine. For more information on F-Code polling, see “F-Code Boxes,” pages 3.24–3.32.

Note: For polling to work, the remote machine must also be set up to be polled.

When your machine polls for documents, it dials the number and, upon making con- tact with the other machine, begins receiving the document as if the other machine had placed the call.

Being polled

Not only can you poll, but you can also be polled. To set up a document for regular polling:

1	If your fax machine is set for Tel Ready reception, change it to the reception
	mode except the Tel Ready.
	Important: Your machine can’t be polled if it’s in Tel Ready mode.
2	Insert the document.
3	Adjust document mode and contrast if necessary. (Your fax machine will be
	transmitting to the machine doing the polling.)
4	Press MENU, 4, 1, 1, ENTER.
	Your fax will scan the document into memory and return to standby mode.

Once the remote fax machine polls the document you stored, your fax machine auto- matically erases the document from memory.
