Polling

Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document to
your machine without operator assistance. In other words, the receiving fax
machine, not the transmitting fax machine, initiates the transmission. You can
use your fax machine to both poll and be polled by others.

To poll another fax machine, follow the steps below.

If desired, you can dial more than one fax number to receive documents
