of the caller’s phone (or fax) number or name before either your fax machine auto-
matically receives the call or you pick up the optional handset.
If you order caller-

ID

service from your local telephone company, the following infor-

mation will show on the

LCD

while your machine is ringing:

• The first 16 characters of the caller’s phone number or name on the

LCD

—

If both the caller’s phone number and name are received, only the name will
appear on the

LCD

• “Private,” meaning that the caller intentionally blocked the transmission of

his/her

phone call.
