I found that the box had not been tampered with and the product was new. The instructions were easy to understand and works for the most part. Some tweeking on my part to get the manuel fax to...
"Carbon Paper" results, becaue it uses "carbon paper".
I purchased this item through a "special deal" very cheap. I've read several of the comments about the machine, but there's one thing that I don't see explained, and I wish I had known about it...
When I needed a fax machine I just went to Amazon, I ought to have checked the local office supply stores. They had lower prices on this item. It's O.K. for the situation where a fax is...
First, the good news: The FAX-575 desktop fax machine from Brother is less than $60, making it a tantalizing option for those who are especially budget conscious. But the benefits of the unit's low...
No longer a good product. An exercise in frustration!
I used to have this fax machine at my former office and it was a great piece of office equipment. When I went to my present place of employment, they used the same fax machine and it worked...
After going through numerous faxes that have had jamming, feeding, or double-feeding issues I came across this one on the recommendation of an attorney who has had one in service for years and...
I bought this thing and unboxed it and expected it to work. I mean, hey its a brother! But to my suprise, it came with a "starter roll" that didn't work. It kept getting caught and sucked up...
When I started asking around for recommendations for a new fax machine, almost everyone had one of these brother intellifaxes and raved about them. They send and receive quickly and reliably, they...
I bought this machine on August 3, 2005 and within one week of using it (as an outgoing fax only), there was a machine error. I called customer service and after being on hold for 23 minutes I was...
If you're going to use this machine for light use, it probably is suitable. However, we receive about 50 fax pages per day, which to me is a moderate amount of pages. Within one year of...
This fax machine is not worth buying. It is flimsy, takes forever to send and receive faxes, and the ink ribbon lasts about 2 weeks (and thats with little use!).
This product did not fit with telephone system I already had- I returned although I did not know Amazon procedures- I returned with all equipment and bill to sender- money returned promptly....
This is an OK fax machine for self-use. Compact design, easy operation, and many additional features. No paper jammed so far. The quality is so so. If you care much about the quality, consider...
Good quality fax. Very fast. There are several design flaws. 1) There is no obvious way to print a receive header showing the time that the fax was received. 2) The LCD is unreadable unless the fax...
I have had this fax machine for about three months now and cannot say enough good things about it. It doesn't jam, it never fails to print an acknowledgement, the speed dial is simple to use, and...
I have no idea how well this product works, because it's not compatible with digital ISP phone lines, so it never worked for us. Nowhere in the item description does it explain that Brother...
To be honest this fax machine doesn't even deserve 1 star. It is by far the very worst fax machine I have ever used. You have to babysit it every time you fax something because the papers get...
This fax machine comes all complete. There is no setup. All you have to do is pull it out of the box and plug in the phone line. Once plugged in, this unit works great. I have not had any...
We have had two Brother fax machines have the same errors. The error indicates to "Unplug unit, and call Brother" after calling Brother they refer you to an authorized dealer for repair which costs...
re: the brothers intellifax 885mc. I bought this machine as I had an earlier model that I loved. It was easy to use, lasted a few years and inspired me to buy a new one. What a mistake. Even with...
Tried everything stated in manual and find that you really don't know when you are sending or receiving a fax without checking the log after the fact. A fax receive is forever and you sit there...
I bought this all-in-one from costco's website. It was a great copier and fax, which was my main concern. I had it about six months before I started having ink problems. I kept getting ink...
If you want a printer that makes sense, this is not the printer for you. This printer requires 4 different cartriges and it won't print unless all of them are full of ink. Each cartridge costs...
Brother's 2480C desktop fax machine gives users a compact piece of hardware that delivers a variety of handy--but entry-level--features. This desktop fax machine rests at the top end of...
If you do a moderate amount of faxing, and need a stand alone fax, this is a great machine. You can scan faxes into the memory while it is sending, so if you have several faxes to send, you can...
I wanted a solid fax machine that did one thing only, and did it well: send and receive faxes. So, far, this machine has performed flawlessly. My only complaint with the machine is that there is...
Very pleased. Had a previous Brother and decided to repurchase after the other lasted 10 yrs. Just as pleased with the new one. Easy to use and several new features. Reliable!!
The MFC is great with double sided printing and wireless capability, but there does not exist enough expletives to describe Brother's customer service.
Oh how I wanted this, I like brother printers - and a wireless one that supports OS9 OSX, and Windows too, USB, wireless, or ethernet - wowee! Then I opened the box, does not do wireless with OS9....
We have had ours for over three months and have been on the phone with technical support numerous times. Main problem we have is the paper feed, it doesn't perform well. Compared to our HP it is a...
This fax machine has been a great upgrade from the 2800 model we had in the office. The output "tray" is a much better design, it actually holds the incoming faxes in that spot, versus the incoming...
Not a great machine, but where do you find a better one?
We bought this fax machine on the basis of the reviews above. We are certainly not very happy with it, compared to our HP old inkjet fax which finally bit the dust.
poor functionality. poor customer support. they just won't tell you how to correct the issue. The only thing they offer is to reinstall the software. Don't by this product or any made by...
The print quality is decent, but not as good as my old HP 6p. The print speed is very good, though paper handling is pretty poor. It's copier function is really pretty good for small jobs.
The laser printer Brother MFC-8220 copies, sends and receives faxes, and scans in monochrome. Built with a top-of-the-line 600dpi, vendor-rated 21ppm engine, the unit includes a 30-page sheetfed...
Very happy with this MFC! This is my second Brother MFC and I can say their quality speaks for itself. while I'll agree that the toner and drum set-up costs a little more it's worth it for the...
Because this is a laser printer, the scanner is only B&W and produces very poor images. The toner cartridge is hard to replace, and the process of replacing it exposes the (expensive) photoelectric...
this is basically a good machine that does well in its price range BUT making envelopes is an exercise in frustration The front feeder is very particular about how far in...
Laser multifunction devices typically have one flaw: They rarely print in color. But, if you don't need color, the high-quality, sharp printouts you'll receive with a laser device are unmatched....
This machine does everything very well. In windows it works perfectly. Under linux installing the drivers are a little more involved. The machine comes with Windows, XP,Vista and Mac OS driver...
It might be faster to scribe than print using this machine
WHEN this printer feels like printing, the quality is acceptable; unfortunately, that's just not often enough. It seems to lose its microcode about 40% of the time, meaning you need to turn the...
Someone looking for laser-quality prints in a multifunction device usually must open his wallet . . . and open it very wide. Brother has changed that mindset and broke the $200 price barrier,...
I wanted an all in one laser unit that was as small as possible. Although it has scanning capacities I don't need this since I also have a full size scanner. The print and faxing capabilities are...
I had this machine for 3 years, during which time it was great. Inexpensive to buy, cheap ink, great features. Then after three years it died. Tried to revive it but Brother customer service...
this unit will drink ink like there is no tomorrow...STAY AWAY FROM BROTHER PRINTERS. As if the operating cost of its ink replacement wasnt bad enough, it died RIGHT after its warranty period was...
Even if you can not print it will allow you to fax, and scan. I never learned how to receive faxes yet. But I do send out several faxes. Does anyone that has the Brother MFC 420CN know how to...
If you don't print, copy, or fax enough in your home or small office to justify an expensive, full-function all-in-one (AIO), but you want one with an automatic document feeder (ADF), standalone...
