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 if the name has stored in the Speed-Dial. Once you
pick up the external handset, the caller's ID disappears. You will see
up to the first 16 characters of the number on the display.
■
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. *
■
If Private Call appears on the display, it means the caller
intentionally blocked the transmission of his/her ID. *
* Depends on network Function.

The Caller ID is Stored in Your MFC Memory

The 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.
■
Printing the Caller ID List.
You can review calls you received by checking the Caller IDs in
memory. This report will list the Date, Time, Phone Number
(Caller ID) name, and type of Call (Comment) if available.
