Caller ID
4.7 Caller ID service
This unit is compatible with Caller ID service
offered by your local telephone company. To
use this feature, you must subscribe to Caller
ID service.
Important:
L This unit is designed in accordance with
the ETS (European Telecommunication
Standard) and only supports the basic
CLIP (Calling Line Identification
Presentation) features.
L This unit will only display the caller’s
telephone number and name.
L This unit will not support future additional
telephone services.
L Depending on the service of the local
telephone company, the date/time of the
call or the caller’s name may not be
displayed.
Make sure the following ring setting is set to
2 or more rings beforehand.
– FAX ring setting (feature #06 on page 70)
4.7.1 How Caller ID is displayed
When an outside call is received, the calling
party’s telephone number or name will be
displayed. You then have the option of whether
or not to answer the call.
The unit will automatically store caller
information (telephone number, name, date and
time of the call) of the last 50 different callers.
Caller information is stored by the most recent to
the oldest call. When the 51st call is received,
the oldest call is deleted.
Caller information can be viewed on the display
one item at a time (page 38) or confirmed by
printing the Caller ID list (page 109).
Note:
L When caller information is received and it
matches a telephone number stored in the
unit’s phonebook:
– The stored name will be displayed.
– The cordless handset will use the ringer
indicator colour and type assigned to the
caller’s category.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private
Branch Exchange) system, caller information
may not be received properly. Consult your
PBX supplier.
L If the unit cannot receive caller information,
the following will be displayed:
“OUT OF AREA”: The caller dialled from an
area which does not provide Caller ID
service.
“PRIVATE CALLER”: The caller requested
not to send caller information.
“LONG DISTANCE”: The caller made a long
distance call.
To confirm caller information by printing
the Caller ID list
– To print manually, see page 109.
– To print automatically after every 50 new
calls, activate feature #26 (page 71).
Private category
Private categories can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringer indicator colours
and ringer types for different categories of
callers.
You can assign items in the cordless handset
phonebook to a category (page 33), change the
category names (Friends, Family, etc., page 78),
and search for phonebook items by category
(page 34). When a call is received from a caller
assigned to a category, the ringer indicator
colour (page 78) and ringer type (page 77) you
select is used.
Call Waiting Caller ID
This is a service of your service provider and will
only operate if you have subscribed to this
service. When you hear a call waiting tone
during a conversation, the display will show the
second caller’s information. You can answer the
second call, keeping the first call on hold. Please
consult your service provider for details of this
service.
Note:
L The second caller’s information will not be
displayed when:
– the answering machine is recording an
incoming message,
– another telephone on the same line is in
use, or
– you are sending or receiving a fax
document.

– Paper that will melt, vaporize, discolour,
scorch or emit dangerous fumes near 200
°C, such as vellum paper. These
materials may transfer onto the fusing
roller and cause damage.
– Moist paper
Some paper only accepts print on one side.
Try using the other side of the paper if you are
not happy with the print quality or if
misfeeding occurs.
For proper paper feeding and best print
quality, we recommend using long-grained
paper.
Do not use paper of different types or
thickness at the same time. This may cause a
paper jam.
Avoid double-sided printing.
Do not use paper printed from this unit for
double-sided printing with other copiers or
printers. This may cause a paper jam.
To avoid curling, do not open paper packs
until you are ready to use the paper. Store
unused paper in the original packaging, in a
cool and dry location.
