Receiving Faxes by Polling (Polling Receive)

You can receive a fax stored on another fax machine by dialing the fax number. Use this feature to receive a document from a fax information service. However, if the fax information service has an audio guidance feature that you need to follow to receive a document, you cannot use this feature.

Note:

To receive a document from a fax information service that uses audio guidance, just dial the fax number using the connected telephone, and operate the phone and the printer following the audio guidance.

Select Fax on the home screen.
Select (More).
Select Polling Receive to set this to On, and then select Close.
Enter the fax number.

Note:

When Security Settings > Direct Dialing Restrictions is set to On, you can only select fax recipients from the contact list or the sent fax history. You cannot manually enter a fax number.
Press the button.
