Advantages of Caller ID
For Business
All businesses profit from a quicker response to customer calls. Businesses that provide mail order
services, money-lending services or provide confidential information, can protect themselves from
false orders or acceptance of false identification.
At Home
Residential customers can protect themselves from unwanted calls.
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. Once you pick
up the handset, the caller's ID disappears. You will see up to the first 16 characters of the number
on the display.
Helpful Hints
I If OUT OF AREA appears on the display, it means that the call came from outside your caller
ID service area or a public phone. *
I If PRIVATE CALL appears on the display, it means the caller intentionally blocked the
transmission of his/her ID. *
I If no caller ID was transmitted to your fax machine, PICK UP PHONE will remain on the
display.
* Depends on network Function.
The Caller ID is Stored in Your Machine's Memory
The FAX/MFC can store a maximum of the last 30 incoming caller IDs in the memory, along with
the time and date of reception. The 31st call will cause the oldest ID to be erased.
The Caller ID information stored in the memory can be used for the following.
