All in one very good
(5 out of 5) by J. Pearson on Aug 10, 2009 (Denver, CO)This fax machine is very good for the price and the features included. It is not too pricey and good quality for the price but let's examine a little further.
Pro's
1. Has a caller ID on both the wireless phone and fax machine. This allows you to carry your wireless phone around your office without having to look at the fax machine to see who is calling.
2. Faxes going out are good and it has not jammed on me yet. Although I suggest you don't overstuff with tons of paper. This is good for small faxes not 50 or large amount. For small business it will suffice.
3. Answering machine. The answering machine built in is of good value. It isn't the best though because it is digital and when you call in to it you can tell it is digital. For small business it is good but if you want crystal clear voice well I would consider another.
4. It works as a copier but is okay. It's black and white but copier is low to medium quality. It should not replace a computer copier or a office copy machine. I don't use the copier cause I got a HP Photosmart All in one.
Con's
1. Incoming faxes. It is of okay quality for incoming but don't expect super high quality. It uses a printer ribbon so it is not like a laser jet.
2. The reception is okay but is not like a high tech multi line phone.
Overall for small businesses it is fine. Large businesses I would look elsewhere. This fax machine is meant for faxes once in awhile but not constant. The wireless phone with answering machine allows you to just have this unit and you don't have to purchase an extra answering machine. For the price well worth it. Just a bit of warning is that if you plan to fax everyday or every couple of hours then this may not be the right product. Recommended for very small businesses, home offices, or home usage.

It is excellent machine for regular use. Ribbons are expensive. Cordless phone and other features for Fax machines are easy to use.

Compact and Nice
(4 out of 5) by Crystal Williams on Apr 1, 2009Very easy to use, easy assembly and looks fine. The only thing is the copies aren't that great, a scale from 1-10 on making copies I would say a 7.5 but I bought it for the fax and that works great but I do feed the fax one page at a time just to be on the safe side. Me and my husband both work and are back in school so having the fax/copy machine in our house is so much more convenient. The size is great you can probably fit it any place in your house.
