Caller ID (For Singapore and Hong Kong)
The Caller ID feature of this fax machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service
offered by many local telephone companies. After at least two rings, the screen
displays the telephone number of your caller (or up to 16 characters of the name, if
available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID information disappears from
the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.
CALL PICKUP display remains on the screen when no Caller ID information was
transmitted.
OUT-OF-AREA display means the call originates outside your Caller ID service area.
PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of
information.
Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local telephone company to
determine the kind of service available in your area.
Caller ID Log
Your fax machine stores up to 10 (FAX-235 and FAX-236) or 30 (FAX-335MC) of
the last Caller IDs received into the fax machines memory in the Caller ID Log. When
the 11th (FAX-235 and FAX-236) or 31st (FAX-335MC) call comes in, information
about the first call is erased. You can print the report or scroll through Caller ID
information to review those calls made to your fax machine.
