Polling
What is polling?
Polling is used when one fax machine requests another to send a docu-
ment. This is useful when the person with the original document to be sent
is not in the office. The person who wants to receive the document calls the
machine holding the original and requests that the document be sent. In
other words, it “polls” the machine holding the original.
Send polling
You can programme your fax machine to send documents in your
absence when polled by a remote fax machine. It is possible to use a poll
code to prevent unauthorized polling of your fax machine. When you
secure your machine in this manner, only those who know the poll code
can poll your machine.
1. Load the document face down. If necessary, use Resolution, or
Contrast. For details, see page 3.2.
2. Press Advanced FAX on the control panel.
The display shows the first menu; BROADCASTING.
3. Press ➛ or ❿ until ‘SEND POLLING’ appears, and press Start/Enter.
4. The display asks you to enter a 4-digit poll code. The poll code is preset
to 0000 at the factory, which represents no poll code.
POLLCODE [0000]
5. If you want to use a poll code, enter the 4-digit code (except for 0000),
then press Start/Enter. Or
If you do not want to secure the transmission with a poll code, press
Start/Enter when the display shows 0000 for the poll code, or press
0000.
6. The display asks you to store the document in the machine’s bulletin
memory.
If you store the document in the bulletin board memory, more than one
remote station can poll that document from your machine. If not, the
document will be automatically erased after being polled by a remote
machine.
Press ➛ or ❿ to select YES or NO.
Advanced fax 4.5
7. The machine stores the document in the memory. The display counts
the number of pages being stored in the memory and the memory
capacity remaining.
The machine returns to standby mode and the display shows a
reminder that a send polling is set. The machine automatically
switches to FAX mode (automatic receiving) when set to be polled.
Receive polling
You can set your machine to automatically receive documents from
one or more unattended remote fax machines. This feature permits
unattended polling in the evening hours when telephone rates are lower.

2. When you hear the fax tone, press Advanced FAX. The display shows
‘RECEIVE POLLING?’.
3. Press Start/Enter. The display asks you to enter a 4-digit code. Poll
code ‘0000’ represents no code.
POLLCODE [0000]
4. If the remote machine is secured with a poll code, you must enter
the correct code, and press Start/Enter.
Or
If the remote machine is not secured with a poll code, press
Start/Enter to accept [0000] which represents no code.
5. The machine begins to receive polling.
Note:
• If you want to cancel the operation, press Stop at any time.
