Sending Documents Requested by Another Fax Machine (Polling Trans- mission)

When you normally send faxes, you load docu- ments into your machine, select a location, and then press the START key to begin sending the documents.

However, sometimes it is more useful to be able to simply load your documents on your machine and set it to wait for the receiving fax machine to call and collect them. This is called setting your ma- chine to be polled, or polling transmission.

Setting Your Machine to be Polled

1Load your documents.

2Press the SELECT FUNCTION key.

3Press the 5/POLLING One-Touch Key. The display shows BULLETIN POLL.

4For standard polling, press NO . The machine begins scanning the message into memory and completes the set up process for the polling text.

For Bulletin Polling, press YES . The display shows PERSONAL BOX NO. [ ]. Enter a mailbox number between 0 ~ 8.

Tip: With Bulletin Polling, a text message is stored in memory until you delete it. You can therefore conduct polling transmission as many times as you want.

Also, when using a box number, the remote fax must also be equipped with a box func- tion. Set the box number to 0 for polling without a box number.

Dialing Another Fax Machine to Re- quest Documents (Polling Reception)

Calling a remote fax machine to receive documents someone else has loaded is called polling or polling reception.
