Robert C : Is it compatible with Apple Macintosh OS?CHARLES L : I'm sorry, but I don't know. We're using the machine as a stand-alone fax with no computer connections at all.ANDREW R : OS Compatibility Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP <a href="http://www.adorama.com/ICAFPL190.html#specs" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/ICAFPL190.html#specs</a>
MARY W : How would you rate this machine?ROBERT F : This is the best fax machine i have ever bought bar none. a few years ago i had to outfit an office with 6 comercial quality fax and i bought $1100 brothers that all burned out within 2 yrs!! with $120 drum changes! I started buying these canon and never looked back. Just bought 2 more - easy setup, reasonable toner and drums.RUSSELL K : I have owned this machine for two years and must give it the highest possible rating. It requires a printer cable (not included), but was very easy to get up and running with its exceptional operation manual. Mine is in a low-usage home environment, but could accommodate much more with its large, high-capacity print cartridge. FYI the replacement cartridge is approx. $75. It is very simple to change between FAX, copy and print functions and the machine seems to be designed to minimize energy consumption. Print quality is quite good, low up front cost, I love it, its perfect for me.THOMAS L : I love this machine. Printing jobs are produced VERY quickly and look great. Fax is easy and reliable.

Great cheap work horse

This printer really is just a printer nothing more. toner is really cheap. I call her my work horse printer. I print an insane ammount. I dont not use the fax part. The copy part is ok but not for doing a bunch of papers through the feeder.

What a waste

This printer doesn't include a Scanning feature. Why bother making a multifunction printer and not include scanning? Who even uses FAX anymore?

In service for 4 years and not a single problem. It has been totally neglected and performing solidly in our small business environment. I am happy to see that it is still in production. Great product.

Several things not to like

Get used to faxing printed side up, not down like 99% of other fax machines. The machine will only redial twice before spitting out a "fax failed" paper. This is even if you specify the maximum redials of 5. Every copy takes twice as long because the machine does a double side routine even if you are only copying one page. If you stop a fax midway for any reason the machine feels compelled to spit out a paper telling you "fax error" I waste more paper with this thing than it saves. Dual sided printing is one nice feature. On the whole I would not recommend this.

Good Solid Fax for Office

I've been using this Faxphone L190 for over a year and it is very reliable. It prints quickly as my main pc printer, is a backup for our larger copy machine when it is in use, and delivers good quality prints - including double sided printing. A little slow if you are faxing, but a lot faster than some similarly priced fax machines out there - adjusting the settings to your needs can help speed up a lot of the functions. Good toner yield as well. Great for the price and the needs of our office. I do wish there was a feature built in to interface the fax to my pc so I can preview possible junk faxes without having to print them and waste paper... but for the price and functionality, it's not so big of a deal.

Not as expected

Machine is noisy when faxing seems to go through a lot of "mechanics" before it takes in the paper. Not user friendly, to many steps to just get a report that the fax went through. The proof of sending faxes report is hard to read, prints out on 2 separate lines you need a ruler to follow the lines.
