What is Polling?
Polling means a fax unit calls another fax unit and requests that the other
fax unit send a document that it is holding. Unlike normal sending and
receiving, in polling the receiver always calls the sender. This is called
polling to receive a document. The sender sends the document in
response to the polling by a telephone call from the receiver.

Your unit can be set up to function in both roles. Your unit can poll to
receive a document, or it can be polled to send a document that it is
holding.
