Polling
Normally, when you send faxes, you load documents, select a
location, and then press the Start key to begin transmis-
sion.
Sometimes it is more useful to load your documents on
your OKIFAX and set it to wait for the receiving fax
machine to call and collect them. This is known as set-
ting your OKIFAX to be polled, or setting it for polling
transmission. Calling a remote fax machine to receive
documents someone else has loaded is known as poll-
ing or polling reception.
Notes:
■ Plan polling arrangements with the other party in
advance, so that everyone is aware of when documents will
be available.
■ Keep in mind that documents waiting to be polled stay
in the document feeder until they have been removed—
you won’t be able to use the document feeder for other
purposes until polling is completed.
