Polling
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You can use the
fax machine to ‘poll’ other machines, or you can have someone poll the fax machine.
Everyone who is involved in Polling needs to set up their fax machines for Polling.
When someone polls the fax machine to receive a fax, they pay for the call. If you
poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax, you pay for the call.
Setting up Polling Receive
Polling Receive is when you call another fax machine to receive a fax from it.
