SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

POLLING TRANSMISSION (MEMORY POLLING)

This function is used to transmit an original that has been scanned into memory to a fax machine that polls your fax machine. If desired, polling fax machines can be restricted to machines whose fax numbers have been programmed in your machine ("RESTRICTING POLLING MACHINES (POLLING SECURITY)" on page 77).

To let other fax machines poll your fax machine, the original to be transmitted must be scanned into memory and the reception mode of your machine must be set to "Auto".

You can select whether polling transmission will take place once or repeatedly. If once is selected, the original that was scanned into memory will be automatically deleted after polling transmission takes place. If repeated polling transmission is selected, the original will remain in memory until it is deleted.

More than one original can be scanned into polling memory (all originals will transmitted when your machine is polled).

Only one memory polling operation can be set up, and the polling machine must be capable of polling reception.

The original(s) in polling memory will be transmitted when a fax machine calls your fax machine and requests polling transmission. Automatic fax reception is possible while your machine is on polling transmission standby.
