Polling; Setting Up Polling Receive - Brother MFC-8440 User Manual

Polling

Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine.
You can use your MFC to 'poll' other machines, or you can have
someone poll your MFC.
Everyone who is involved in Polling needs to set up their fax
machines for Polling. When someone polls your MFC to receive a
fax, they pay for the call. If you poll someone's fax machine to receive
a fax, you pay for the call.
Some fax machines do not respond to the Polling feature.

Setting up Polling Receive
