Sending Documents Requested by
Another Fax Machine (Polling Trans-
mission)
When you normally send faxes, you load docu-
ments into your machine, select a location, and
then press the START key to begin sending the
documents.
However, sometimes it is more useful to be able to
simply load your documents on your machine and
set it to wait for the receiving fax machine to call
and collect them. This is called setting your ma-
chine to be polled, or polling transmission.

Setting Your Machine to be Polled

1 Load your documents.
2 Press the SELECT FUNCTION key.
3 Press the 5/POLLING One-Touch Key. The
display shows BULLETIN POLL.
4 For standard polling, press
machine begins scanning the message into
memory and completes the set up process for
the polling text.
For Bulletin Polling, press
display shows PERSONAL BOX NO. [ ].
Enter a mailbox number between 0 ~ 8.
Tip: With Bulletin Polling, a text message is
stored in memory until you delete it. You can
therefore conduct polling transmission as
many times as you want.
Also, when using a box number, the remote
fax must also be equipped with a box func-
tion. Set the box number to 0 for polling
without a box number.
Dialing Another Fax Machine to Re-
quest Documents (Polling Reception)
Calling a remote fax machine to receive documents
someone else has loaded is called polling or polling
reception.
