Polling

What is Polling?

Polling is used when one fax machine requests another to send a document. This is useful when the person with the original document is not in the office. The person to receive the document calls the machine holding the original and requests that the document be sent. In other words, it “polls” the machine holding the original.

Polling Transmission

You can program the fax machine to send documents in your absence when polled by a remote fax machine. A polling code is used to prevent unauthorized polling of your machine. When you secure your machine in this manner, only those who know the poll code can poll your machine.

1.Load your document face down with the top edge first going into the document feeder, and adjust the resolution and contrast. For details, see page 3.8.

2.Press Advanced FAX on the front panel. The display shows the first menu; BROADCASTING.

3.Press ➛ or ❿ until ‘SEND POLLING’ appears, and press Start/Enter to access the Send Polling menu.

4.The display asks you to enter a 4-digit poll code. The poll code is preset to 0000 at the factory which represents no poll code.

POLLCODE [0000]

5.To use a poll code, enter the 4-digit code (except for 0000), then press Start/Enter. Or,

If you do not want to secure the transmission with a poll code, press Start/Enter when the display shows 0000 for the poll code, or press 0000.

6.The display asks you to store the document in the machine’s bulletin memory.
