Polling; Setting Send Polling - HP 640 Fax series User Manual

Polling

Polling enables you to set up a document so it can be retrieved at a later time.
For example, you can place the document in your machine, and the other party can
retrieve it when they are in the office or when their calling rates are lower.

Setting send polling

You can program your fax machine to send a document when it is requested by a
remote fax machine.
NOTE: Your HP Fax allows you to set one poll job at a time and it can be retrieved
once.
1. Turn the document face down and feed it into the machine.
2. Press Menu repeatedly until ADVANCED FAX appears and press OK.
3. Select Set Polling Send by pressing
Poll Code [0000] will display.
4. Enter the poll code you want to use for this document and press OK.
• The poll code is preset to 0000, which means that the receiver does not need
to enter a poll code to receive the document.
• The poll code is not static. You enter a new one for each document.
• The poll code is used to prevent your document from being retrieved by an
unauthorized caller.
• Your machine starts scanning the document(s) into memory and shows POLLING
SEND in the display. If the answer mode was TEL, the machine changes it to FAX
mode automatically.
• When it is polled, the page in memory will be deleted automatically. To cancel
Send Polling, see To cancel the scheduled job on page 34.
