Receiving faxes into memory
when the paper tray is empty

4

As soon as the paper tray becomes empty
during fax reception, the LCD shows No
Paper and begins receiving faxes into the

machine’s memory. Put some paper in the
paper tray. (See Basic User’s Guide: Loading
paper and print media
.)

The machine will carry on receiving the fax,
with the remaining pages being stored in
memory, if enough memory is available.

Incoming faxes will continue to be stored in
the memory until the memory becomes full or
paper is loaded in the paper tray. When the
memory is full the machine will stop
automatically answering calls. To print the
faxes, put fresh paper in the tray and press
Start.

Polling overview

4

Polling lets you set up your machine so other
people can receive faxes from you, but they
pay for the call. It also lets you call somebody
else’s fax machine and receive a fax from it,
so you pay for the call. The polling feature
needs to be set up on both machines for this
to work. Not all fax machines support polling.

Polling receive

Polling receive lets you call another fax
machine to receive a fax.
