Polling

There are two types of polling: standard and bulletin.

What is Standard Polling?

Normally, when you send faxes, you load documents, select a location, and then press the Start key to begin transmission.

Sometimes it is more useful to load your documents on your fax unit and set it to wait for the receiving fax machine to call and collect them. This is known as setting your unit to be polled, or setting it for polling transmission. Calling a remote fax machine to receive documents someone else has loaded is known as polling or polling reception.

!Plan polling arrangements with the other party in advance, so that everyone is aware of when documents

will be available.

Keep in mind that documents waiting to be polled stay in the document feeder until they have been removed— you won’t be able to use the document feeder for other purposes until polling is completed.

What is Bulletin Polling?

This feature is similar to standard polling. The main difference is that the document is stored in a personal mailbox instead of loaded into the document stacker. This means that the document can be polled by more than one remote fax machine. The document is not deleted after it is polled. You can also store different documents in different boxes, so that you can easily change the document available for polling.
