The Brother IntelliFax-2820 Plain Paper Laser Fax Machine

bythree_ster May 27, 2006
58 Helpfuls 59 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros easy to use, not too expensive, prints confirmation sheet without asking, warranty
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

The requirement of basically any office now, is to have a fax machine. Not just any fax machine either, but one that can handle a large load of work, and can do so with ease. Nobody wants to waste time trying to figure out the fax machine, or spend hours going through a manual just to find that it... Read full review »

Cons None so far
Recommended it? Yes

Over 3 years ago I bought a Brother FAX 560 for light faxing duties (25 to 50 a month) in my home office. This was a very adequate fax machine and copier. I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of jams that occured over the 3 year period. Yeah. I was pleased with my 50 buck investment... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I bought the Brother 2820 after returning a Canon L80 when I discovered the Canon wouldn't support printing from a Mac. The Brother was easier to set up than the Canon, takes a little less space and is faster. So far I have been extremely pleased. Only disappointment was that it apparently doesn't...

Better printing than the Brother 5250DN

Pros Sharp text at lowest settings, no curling, easy setup, connects to pc, junk faxes less.
Cons Paper jams occur when humidity is high.
Recommended it? Yes

The Brother Intellifax 2820 was bought to replace a Sharp fax that suddenly stopped feeding the paper. After looking online at various non-laser faxes which either received poor ratings or good ratings but had small ink cartridges, I decided that a laser fax was the best option.

YOU NEED TO READ THIS ONE BEFORE BUYING AN INTELLIFAX 2820!

Pros None -
Cons Printed paper gets wadded up in narrow area where it's supposed to come out
Recommended it? No

I and my partners over the years have bought and used Brother fax machines in our offices.

When my Intellifax 2800 finally wore out (nice machine - I had two), I went to Staples to find that the 2800 is no longer made but that there is now the 2820. So, I bought the 'Intellifax 2820' and... Read full review »

A "Ok" Fax machine

byryansyp Aug 2, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Fairly fast and easy to use as long as the fax goes the first time.
Cons Inability to set the redials and interval really sucks. Too many bugs in the system.
Recommended it? No

Overall this machine is a let down. We own two of these machines and they both have had problems. One of which we had to send for repairs. But, overall it the little things that make this a poor choice.
First off you cannot set the number of redials, or the interval between them. You get one... Read full review »

Pros cheap for laser printing; has Mac interface
Cons machine totally shuts down when "toner empty" sensor activates
Recommended it? No

I purchased this a 6 months ago for light duty fax work, and it has worked reasonably well: out of 1000 pages printed there were only 4 paper jams. However, yesterday it notified me that my toner was empty and I needed replacement cartridge (which I didn't have since there was no "low toner"... Read full review »

I bought this fax machine from Staples, and I bought the protection plan for $30. The machine worked great for 6 six months, then it just stopped working. So I hauled it back to Staples, they replaced it I paid another $30 for a new protection plan and I was given a new fax machine.
