Polling (Requesting a Fax Transmission)

Polling (Requesting a Fax Transmission)

Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document (previously loaded in its feeder) to your machine without assistance from the operator of the other machine.

Hint: Polling is useful when you want the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine, to bear the cost of the call.

To use the polling function, the other machine must be capable of being polled.

Before polling, make sure the other machine is set up to receive your polling request.

Your machine is not capable of being polled.

1Dial the fax machine that you wish to poll using one of the following methods:

Enter the full number using the numeric keys.

Pick up the handset (or press ) and dial the full number. Wait for the fax

answerback tone.

Press or until the name (or number) of the other party appears in

the display.

2 Press ABRUF .

If you used the handset, replace it when POLLING appears in the display. Reception will begin.
