Ease of Use

I've used both features; copy & fax. I read the directions for use, but truthfully, one only has to look at the keyboard & figure out the procedures. This product is well worth the price.

BIggest pain in the neck to set up!!

A fax machine should fax. This took multiple tries, too much trial and error and far too much frustration before it would fax. If it were my decision, boat anchor would have been returned ASAP.

Specs Lacking...

There are only 4 accessories, a replacement drum, toner, a phone cord, and a paper tray. I've ADDED trays to lasers before, but never replaced one... How often does this tray break for it to be considered an "accessory"? It's also not clear if you can ADD or only REPLACE a paper tray (that only holds a half ream of paper. Have you ever bought a 250 sheet package of copier paper before?

Best Purchase Ever

This intellifax machine is one of the best our office has purchased. It is fast and easy to use. Storage compartment for paper is more than some of the more expensive models. I would recommend this product either for home use or a small business. Would purchase this item again.

Not Good

Since we have had the fax it constantly jams and/or prints the paper out the back of the machine. We have called Brother and after several attempts to help us, he stated it sounded defective. We are reaching out to the vendor that we purchased it from to see if they can return it for a new one. We will give it one more chance.

Will not retain Image On setting in memory

Machine will not retain the "Image On" setting in memory. I have been dealing with high level tech support for a day and a half to correct this problem. This is time which I do not have to waste on a FAX machine. The machine prints the image on one or two fax transmissions, then it stops printing the image.
