Caller ID
The Caller ID feature of this FAX/MFC lets you use the Caller ID
subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. After a few
rings, the screen displays the telephone number of your caller (or 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.
