Caller ID

The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller
ID subscriber service offered by many local
telephone companies. This service shows the
telephone number, or name if it is available,
of your caller as the line rings. Call your
telephone company for details.
After a few rings, the Touchscreen will show
the telephone number of your caller (and
name, if available). Once you answer a call,
the Caller ID information disappears from the
Touchscreen, but the call information stays
stored in the Caller ID memory.
You can view the list or choose one of these
numbers to add to Address Book, or delete
from the history.

You can see the number (or name).

The ID Unknown message means the
call originated outside your Caller ID
service area.

The ID Withheld message means the
caller has intentionally blocked
transmission of Caller ID information.
You can print a list of the Caller ID information
received by your machine (see How to print a
report on page 48).
NOTE
• The Caller ID service varies with different
carriers. Call your local telephone
company to find out about the kind of
service available in your area.
• This feature may not be available in some
countries.

numbers
Sometimes you may want to choose from
several long-distance carriers when you send
a fax. Rates may vary depending on the time
and destination. To take advantage of low
rates, you can store the access codes of long-
distance carriers and credit card numbers as
Address Book numbers. You can store these
long dialling sequences by dividing them and
setting them up as separate Address Book
numbers in any combination. You can even
include manual dialling using the dial pad
(see Basic User's Guide: Storing numbers).
For example, you might have stored '01632'
in Address Book: Brother 1 and '960555' in
Address Book: Brother 2. You can use them
both to dial '01632-960555' if you press the
following:
