Using the polling option
Polling is used when one fax machine requests another to send a
document. This is useful when the person with the original document is
not in the office. The person who wants to receive the document, calls the
machine holding where the original is stored and requests that the
document be sent. In other words, it "polls" the machine holding that has
the original.
Note
To use this feature, both the sender and receiver must have the
polling feature.
The polling process is as follows:
1 Sender stores the originals in the machine. (Page 6.8)
2 Sender gives the Passcode to the receiver.
3 Receiver dials the fax number and enters the Passcode when
requested. (Page 6.8)
4 Receiver presses Start to receive the stored fax.
