Calling to Request a Message (Polling)

Overview

Polling means "picking up" a document that has been left for you at a remote fax
terminal. You can also leave a document in your machine’s memory (on Type I
models) or in the document feeder (Type II models) for other machines to poll
from you.

With polling, telephone line costs are charged to the person receiving the
message (the message receiver).

Polling can only be used when both machines have the Polling feature.
