Printing a stored polling document

To print, without erasing, a document you've stored for regular or
database polling:
1. If the machine is in Fax mode, proceed to step 2.
If it is in Copy mode, press COPY/FAX to change to Fax mode.
2. Press PROGRAM, D, 3, ENTER. The display will show:
Print Polling Doc.
File No.
If printing a document set up for regular polling, skip to step 4.
If printing a document set up for database polling, proceed to step 3.
3. Use the numeric keypad to enter a one- or two-digit database file
number to identify the stored document.
4. Press ENTER. Your fax machine will print the document.

Limiting polling access to your fax machine

Your fax machine's closed network setting (see page 168) 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 page
170), even incoming calls which meet the passcode test must come
from appropriate phone numbers.

OneLine + distinctive ring detection (DRD)

It used to be that, to have two phone numbers, you had to have two phone
lines (and the more expensive phone equipment that usually involves).
But many phone companies now offer their customers a special service
which makes it possible for one phone line to do the work of two — a real
boon in this day of the "SOHO" (small office/home fax).
With this service, you physically still have one phone line; but,
electronically, you have two phone numbers. Each number rings your
phone in a different way than the other number does.
This makes it easy for you to have both (for example) a business number
and a home number on one phone line, so you can answer one with "Jane
Doe Consulting" and the other with "Hello."
You get the idea: this works because you're smart enough to tell the
difference between the distinctive patterns of the two rings.
