Telephone Service
Features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting,
RingMaster, answering services, alarm
systems or other custom features on one
phone line may create problems with the
operation of your machine.
Your fax 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 rings. 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 select 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.

How Does the Caller ID Work?
The Caller ID Appears on the Display
When Your Telephone Rings
As your telephone rings, the display shows
you the caller's phone number or name. And
it will also show you the caller's name, if the
name has been stored as speed dial or one
touch dial in your machine. Once you pick up
the handset, the caller's ID disappears.
