Polling Overview; Polled Transmit - Brother HL-2130 User Manual

Polling overview

Polling lets you set up your machine so other
people can receive faxes from you, but they
pay for the call. It also lets you call somebody
else's fax machine and receive a fax from it,
so you pay for the call. The polling feature
needs to be set up on both machines for this
to work. Not all fax machines support polling.

Polled transmit

Polled transmit lets you set up your machine
