Caller ID (For Singapore and Hong Kong)

The Caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. Call your telephone company for details. This service provides you, by means of the screen display, the telephone number (or name) of your caller as the line rings. (See Printing Caller ID List on page 46.)

After a few rings, the screen displays the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once you answer the call, the Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.

„You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name.

„ID Unknown display means call originates outside your Caller ID service area.

„ID Withheld display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information.

Note

You can print a list of Caller ID information received by your machine. (See How to print a report on page 55.)

Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local phone company to determine the kind of service available in your area.
