Other Transmission Features

Polling Transmission

Use Polling Transmission to leave an original in the machine memory for others to pick up. The document is sent when the other party calls you up.

There are three types of Polling Transmission:

Free Polling Transmission

It is not necessary to enter the Polling ID during the procedure. Anybody can poll the document from your machine. The machine sends it regardless of whether Polling IDs match.

Default ID Transmission

It is not necessary to enter the Polling ID during the procedure. The document will only be sent if the Polling ID of the machine trying to poll your document is the same as the Polling ID stored in your machine. Make sure in advance that both machines' Polling IDs are identical.

ID Override Transmission

You must enter an Override Polling ID unique to the transmission. This ID overrides the ID stored in the machine. The user must supply this ID when they poll your machine. If the IDs match, the document is sent. Make sure in advance the other end knows the ID you are using.

Important

Before using ID Polling Transmission, you must register a Polling ID in the Facsimile Features menu.

Polling Transmission is allowed only if the receiver's machine has the Polling Reception function.

Usually, only machines of the same manufacturer that support Polling Recep- tion can perform ID Polling Transmission. However, if the Information Box File function is used, and the other party's fax machine supports Polling Transmission and the SEP function, you can still carry out Polling Transmis- sion with an ID.

This function is not available with Internet Fax.
