Caller ID
The Caller ID feature of this fax machine lets you use the Caller ID
subscriber service offered by many local telephone companies. After at least
two rings, the screen displays the telephone number of your caller (or up to
16 characters of the name, if available). Once you pick up the handset, the
Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information
remains stored in the Caller ID memory.
• CALL PICKUP display remains on the screen when no Caller ID
information was transmitted.
• OUT-OF-AREA display means the call originates outside your Caller ID
service area.
• PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked
transmission of information.
Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local telephone
company to determine the kind of service available in your area.
Caller ID Log
Your fax machine stores up to 20 of the last caller IDs received into the fax
machine’s memory in the Caller ID Log. When the twenty-first call comes
in, information about the first call is erased. You can print the report or
scroll through Caller ID information to review those calls made to your fax
machine.
