Using Reports

Printing SMDR Reports

SMDR reports consist of SMDR call records that print sequentially on a serial
printer connected to the SMDR jack on the control unit. If the printer is off, is out
of paper, or has a paper jam, up to 100 SMDR records are stored in the SMDR
queue. The printing of system programming reports take precedence; while
these reports are printing, SMDR records are stored in the queue.
For more information, see "Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR)" in the
Feature Reference .

Printing System Programming Reports

sections and options. See Appendix F of System Programming for samples of
