Caller ID

The Caller ID feature of this FAX/MFC 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/MFC stores up to 30 of the last Caller IDs received into the FAX/MFC’s memory in the Caller ID Log. When the thirty-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/MFC.
