Caller-

ID

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

ID

area.

Note: Your fax machine cannot receive the caller-

ID

• While either the fax machine is communicating or you are making a tele-

phone call.

• The number of rings (see page 2.5) is set to one ring.
