Oh Brother, what a pile of poo

Advantages: looks like it could withstand a baseball bat attack
Disadvantages: tempremental, toner finisher is poor, cannot add up, copies at a snails pace

...you wanted to buy a Brother FAX 8360P and I would urge everyone reading not to it would cost around £230 and for that you get the fax machine, a network cable to hook it up to your LAN and a lead to plug it into the phone network to enable transmissions. We have had our Brother FAX 8360P for 6 months and the problems started pretty much straight away and the instruction manuals FAQ are about as much use as a chocolate fireguard, as it the manufacturers ...
...to send and receive documents from another fax machine. It also doubles up as a copying machine but in an office area, there is no need for this function if there is an onsite photocopier. It has the capacity to store up to 300 speed dial numbers but no ability to attach names to the numbers and nowhere to write them down so after inputting 30 or so you start to lose track of who is who. So the problems. Over the last 5 months (it worked ok for ...

Review of Brother FAX 8360P

fax me more ribbons

Advantages: ease of use with clear instructions on the lcd screen
Disadvantages: ribbon runs out very quickly with printing reports and costs £16.99 to replace

Upon opening i was very excited as this was my first fax machine, i didn't plan to use it a lot but as i found this easy to work the instructions to set up baby proof i have found myself using it more and more. sending a fax couldn't be easier once i worked out which way to put the paper in. it is small and compact and my little girl loves to dial out using the phone, so the feactures are good but a little confusing to start with. my only quibble ...
...reviews and so wastes the ribon which costs £16.99 to replace, however you can look at the old ribbon to see it is mainly blank sheets of paper with test or power serge at the top. i would have put a tray at the bottom to collect the faxed sheet when it has feeded through. ...

Review of Brother FAX-T104

Very Reliable Brother

Advantages: Cordless phone, quick document scanning
Disadvantages: small recording time of answering machine

The Brother FAX-1560 is an inkjet fax machine with an integrated telephone as well as an answering machine. The use of inkjet technology means that your received fax documents will be of high quality, but will not be waterproof like all inkjet technology using devices. Other technologies are also put into practice on this fax machine, one technological advantage is the transmission of super fine details and the auto-correctness of errors that occur ...
...is quite quick. The Brother FAX-1560 automatically feeds in 20 documents in the document feeder. The document feeder is basically the section of the fax machine which holds the paper ready to fax or print out faxed documents. The paper tray capacity is 100 sheets, which means the fax machine can hold up to a maximum of 100 sheets at a time. There are 10 one-touch speed dials, which allow you to assign an individual phone number to each dial. The ...

Review of Brother FAX-T106

Big Brother

Advantages: A Lot
Disadvantages: Could not find any

I had to set up an office on a shoestring. Well, actually it was in what used to be my sitting room but you know what I mean. One of the things we needed was a plain paper fax. I used to have one of those giant toilet roll jobs but that was very inconvenient with long documents and kept getting jammed up. Anyway, we bought one of these machines and it has sat between me and my partner in crime for about eighteen months. Now I will be truthful. I ...
...that today I would just read what others had written and keep my mouth shut. But I have just had an experience with this machine that prompted me to write. It needed a new cartridge. Have you ever noticed that the ink always runs out in the middle of receiving a fax? Funny that... Now, I've changed a cartridge before on this machine. It only took about half an hour and neccessitated about three glasses of wine before I could speak civilly to anyone ...
