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
the document. In other words, it "polls" the machine holding the original
document.
Polling Remote Machines (CONT. POLL)
You can set up the machine to automatically receive documents from
unattended remote fax machines. The machine can be set up to receive the
fax now, or at a later time. This feature permits unattended polling in off-
peak hours when telephone rates are lower.
Note: The remote machine must also support polling to use this feature.
