Being polled (Memory polling)

To let another fax machine poll your fax machine, you must first store the document(s) in memory using the following procedure. Transmission will take place when the other fax machine calls your fax machine and activates polling. You can choose whether to allow polling only once, or an unlimited number of times. In the latter case, your fax machine can be used as an electronic "bulletin board".

If you allow polling only once, the document(s) will be automatically cleared from memory after polling. If you allow polling an unlimited number of times, the document will remain in memory until you clear it as explained in the following section, Clearing a memory polling document.
