Disappointed

Date of Review:  Nov 4, 2005
The Bottom Line: Get a dedicated FAX machine or maybe a more expensive multi-function machine.
Review: I needed a new FAX machine and I've had good luck with my Brother printer, so I thought I'd try a Brother FAX machine. The idea of having a color printer thrown in also influenced my purchase.

Unfortunately this machine doesn't meet my...

Review: I just bought this today for use in my home and have run it through all of it's functions. So far it does everything it should do with excellence, but the main reason I bought it was because of the flip covers that go over the button's. If you have...

Don't buy one! Half-smart device always needs ink!

Date of Review:  Mar 22, 2006
Review: The fax machine works okay in black and white. Anything I've ever tried to print in color looks faded. The machine stops working on a regular basis, complaining of "No Cartridge" or "Low Magenta" or "Low Cyan" or "Low Yellow" or "Low Black." When...

Review: I purchased this fax machine because it had a pretty good review up to the time i purchased it - 4/05. it works well until one of the ink cartridges empties, and then your problems begin. when you replace an ink cartridge sometimes it recognizes it...

Get ready to buy more ink and buy more ink

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2006
Review: I have a Brother 1840C fax machine. I didn't need the color capability when I bought it, never used it and I still don't. But every day the machine "cleans" itself, using a little of the color inks. And when any cartridge is empty, the entire...

Piece of Crap machine

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2008
Review: Don't ever buy this machine. I've had the same problem with drinking color ink even though, even though I don't ever use color. Won't work at all unless color carts are all full. I've missed some important communications because the machine stopped...

Drinks color ink printing black/white faxes

Date of Review:  Oct 2, 2005
Review: You will spend a lot buying new color ink tanks (3 separate colors) even if you only use it for black/white faxing. I have owned this machine for 3 months and received ONLY black/white faxes, yet I am on my third set of each of the yellow, cyan, and...

Garbage - STAY AWAY

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2007
Review: I can't give this machine a low enough score.
Its absurdly slow almost to the point where you question how badly you really need whatever fax is coming through. Despite printing only black and white, it insists on using all the colors and is...

Junk...PURE JUNK

Date of Review:  Feb 23, 2007
Review: In 16 months Brother replaced this fax 2 times under warranty because of complete failure/loss of power. On the 3rd fax barely out of warranty, Brother refused to step up and accept responsibility and was therefore threatened by the news media...
