Polling
Polling
allows someone to fax a document to you
without
the other person having to make
(and pay for) the call. Your machine can perform:
•
Regular polling
— Retrieves a document from the remote fax machine.
•
Database polling, Muratec-proprietary
— (Possible only in communication with certain
memory-equipped Muratec or Murata fax machines.) Retrieves a document stored as a
file in the remote fax machine’s memory. Great for getting work assignments, updated
price lists, contest standings and other frequently updated documents.
•
Continuous polling
— Retrieves continuously a document from any remote fax machine
for the designated time. For example, a hospital pharmacy can use this to check on
orders waiting in other faxes in the hospital.
•
Database polling using
ITU
-
T
-standard sub-addressing
— This allows you to perform
database polling in communication with not only other Muratec (or compatible) fax
machines, but also other makers’ machines.
