Default Name of track display on cd player

Is there a way to make the cd player in my '06 XLT show the name of the tracks on a cd on the display?

My dad just got an '05 Focus with what seems to be an identical cd player and his shows the names of the tracks.

regular audio cds also have CD Text written into them, if the player is capable of reading the text file it will show in cds that have it.....i do believe it is called "Enhanced CD". I only have three discs with it, one of them is Incubus's SCIENCE, but thats some old stuff.

I have an 05 lariat screw with the 6 disc changer and when I put a cd in I just hit the number 6 on the preset which says text underneath the button. This works only when I have an mp3 cd in or a cd with text on it, some wont work.

I just read a thread here the other day from a person that was getting an error printout on his 6 cd changer when he tried to eject the CD(s)....

Does that count?!?
