Polling

What is polling?

Polling means that one fax machine requests another to send a document.

This is useful for sending unattended faxes. The person who wants 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

document.

Note: The remote machine must also support polling to use this feature.

Being polled by a remote machine (TX poll)

You can program your fax machine to send documents when polled by a

remote fax machine. It is possible to assign a poll code to prevent

unauthorized polling of your fax machine.

When you secure your machine using a poll code, only those who know the

code can poll your machine.

1. Place the document face down in the automatic document feeder. If

desired, adjust the resolution and contrast. for details, see page 2.8

2. Press Menu, then press Pollingon the one-touch keypad. The display

prompts you to choose on of the two polling options: 1.TX POLLand

2.DELAYRX POLL.

3. Press Start/Enter to confirm ‘1.TX POLL.’ The display prompts you to

enter a 4-digit poll code.

Note: The poll code is preset to 0000 at the factory. This setting represents no poll

code.

4. If you want to use a poll code, enter a 4-digit code.

5. 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 TX-POLLCODE. If you

previously entered a poll code, and do not want one, you may enter 0000

and then press Start/Enter.
