Caller ID

The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. Subscriber services send the name or telephone number of your caller as the line rings.

When a call comes in, after a few rings the MFC displays the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once the call is answered, 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.

OUT OF AREA display means call originates outside your Caller ID service area.

PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information.

If both the name and number are received, the screen displays only the name. You can print a list of received Caller ID information.

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