Polling a Remote Fax Mailbox (Embedded Fax)
Use the Fax (Embedded Fax) service to scan your documents and send them to most types of fax
machines that are connected to the telephone network.
Note: This option must be made available by your System Administrator.
If Authentication or Accounting has been enabled on your device you may have to enter login
details to access the Fax features.
Use the Poll Remote Mailbox option to retrieve a fax from a specific mailbox on another device. You
need to know the mailbox number before you can use this option. Sometimes you will also need to
know a passcode to access the remote mailbox.
Note: Polling is where a fax is not sent to a recipient but is saved on the originating device. When
the recipient is ready to receive the fax they contact (poll) the device and request the fax.
