7 SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
CALLER ID
If you subscribe to a caller identification service from your telephone company, you
can set your fax to display the name and number of the caller while the fax rings.
The fax will also store information about unanswerered calls which you can view in
the display or print out as a list. This allows you to screen your calls as they come
in, and makes it easy to respond to callers who do not leave messages.
To use the Caller ID function, set Option Setting 13 to YES and enter your area
code as described in Chapter 8, "Optional Settings".

How Caller ID operates
When you receive a call, the name and phone number of the caller will alternately
appear in the display, beginning just before the second ring. The information will
continue to be displayed until you pick up the handset, or until the fax answers
automatically if it is in TAD or FAX mode.
Note: Some caller ID services may not provide the name of the caller. In this case,
only the phone number will appear.
Display messages
One of the following messages will appear while the fax rings if caller information is
not available.
NO SERVICE No caller information was received from your
telephone company. Make sure that the
telephone company has activated your service.
CALLER-ID ERROR Noise on the telephone line prevented
reception of caller information.
OUT OF AREA The call was made from an area which does
not have a caller identification service, or the
caller’s service is not compatible with that of
your local phone company.
PRIVATE CALL Caller information was not provided by the
telephone company at the caller’s request.
