Poll to receive a fax
Polling allows your HP all-in-one to ask another fax machine to send a fax that it has in
its queue. When you use the
Poll to Receive
feature, the HP all-in-one calls the
designated fax machine and requests the fax from it. The designated fax machine must
be set for polling and have a fax ready to send.
Note
The HP all-in-one does not support polling pass codes. This is a security feature
that requires the receiving fax machine (your HP all-in-one) to provide a pass
code to the device it is polling in order to receive the fax. Make sure the device
you are polling does not have a pass code set up (or changed the default pass
code) or the HP all-in-one will not be able to receive the fax.
