Polling is useful when the sending party cannot be in the office at the same time. What's Polling? Polling means a fax calls another fax and requests the other fax to send a document that it is holding. Unlike normal sending and receiving, in polling the receiver always calls the sender. The sender sends the document in response to the polling by a telephone call from the receiver. NOTE Your fax can be set up to function in both roles. Your fax can poll to receive a document, or it can be polled to send a document that it is holding. Before You Use Polling Receiving Before you try to set up polling, note the following points: · With one operation you can poll several faxes. You can dial up to 142 telephone numbers and poll those faxes to receive documents that they are holding. · If the other party is using a Canon fax machine which has the Polling ID function, ask them to set the Polling ID of their fax machine to 255 (1111 1111 binary number).
