Beyond the basics

mode, causing the Auto Answer light to glow (see page 1.29).
Important: Your machine can't be polled if it's in Tel Ready mode.
2.
Insert the document.
3.
Adjust resolution and contrast, if necessary. (This is because your fax machine
will be transmitting to the machine doing the polling.)

Limiting polling access to your fax machine

Your fax machine's closed network setting (see page 2.45) works for polling, as well. If
a calling fax doesn't "present" the proper passcode, it cannot poll from your fax.
Note: However, if you're using the Block Junk Fax feature (see pages 2.46–2.47),
even incoming calls that meet the passcode test must come from appropriate
phone numbers.
