Telephone and external devices

Telephone line
services
The caller ID feature of this machine lets you
use the caller ID subscriber service offered by
certain telephone companies.
Caller ID (Caller
IDentification) (not available
in certain area)
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows
the subscriber to see a display of the caller's
phone number as the telephone ring. It is a
fast way to screen your calls. You can
respond quickly to calls you missed, because
caller IDs are received and stored in your fax
machine memory. Besides the standard
Caller ID feature, you can also choose a
single caller's phone number and call back.
Note
• To get the Caller ID service, you have to
apply for it at your local telephone
company.
• FSK and DTMF are the two modes for
displaying your calls.
The default mode of this machine is FSK.
Please ask your local telephone company
for whether your mode is FSK or DTMF.
• If your local telephone company uses
DTMF mode, please switch your mode as
follows. Contact your local telephone
company or Brother dealer in the case that
the feature does not work normally.
Caller ID feature is not available in the
following situation:
1 You have not applied for it at your local
telephone company.

device.

Caller ID feature

The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller
ID subscriber service offered by many local
telephone companies. Call your telephone
company for details. This service shows the
telephone number, or name if it is available,
of your caller as the line rings.
After a few rings, the LCD will show the
telephone number of your caller (and name, if
available). Once you press Hook and answer
a call, the Caller ID information disappears
from the LCD, but the call information stays
stored in the Caller ID memory.
You will see the number (or name) on the
LCD.
