Chapter 7 Caller ID 7 The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local telephone companies. Call your telephone company for details. This service shows the telephone number, or name if it is available, of your caller as the line rings. After a few rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (and name, if available). Once you answer a call, the Caller ID information disappears from the LCD, but the call information stays stored in the Caller ID memory. You can view the list or choose one of the numbers to fax to, add to Speed Dial or delete from the history. (See Caller ID history on page 76.) You can see the first 20 characters of the number (or name). The # Unavailable message means the call originated outside your Caller ID service area. The Private Call message means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information. You can print a list of the Caller ID information received by your machine. (See How to print a report on page 89.) Note • This feature may not be available in certain areas of the USA and Canada. • The Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local telephone company to find out about the kind of service available in your area. Setting up your area code (USA only) 7 When returning calls from the caller ID history your machine will automatically dial "1" plus the area code for all calls. If your local dialing plan requires that the "1" not be used for calls within your area code enter your area code in this setting. With the area code setting, calls returned from the caller ID history to your area code will be dialed using 10 digits (area code + 7-digit number). If your dialing plan does not follow the standard 1 + area code + 7-digit number dialing system for calling outside your area code, you may experience problems returning calls automatically from the caller ID history. If this is not the procedure followed by your dialing plan, you will not be able to return calls automatically. a Press MENU. b Press a or b to display Fax. c Press Fax. d Press a or b to display Miscellaneous. e Press Miscellaneous. f Press a or b to display Area Code. g Press Area Code. h Enter your Area Code (3-digit number) using the buttons on the LCD, and press OK. i Press Stop/Exit. 68
