IntelliFax-2840
Our other Brother Fax bit the dust after about 5 years. This is great improvement.

Super Quality
Easy to use, and very efficient.
I'm just sorry that I didn't get the model that includes a scanner.

Replacement for IntelliFax-2820
Prior Brother Intellifax machine no longer willing to print. Had to replace it. This one prints nice clear copies.
At first I was not able to receive Faxes with this machine, but the telephone company installed a clean line with low noise. I guess the machine will not work with any noise on the line.
I called the service department two times and they walked me through the trouble shooting as best they could. They did not know why the machine would not receive faxes on the dedicated fax line but would receive faxes on the voice telephone line.

Overall nice fax / printer.
Fairly easy setup. Nice size footprint. Initial toner life is somewhat abbreviated but regular, full size replacement toner seems to be available at numerous retail outlets and often at discount prices. Bit pricy to get decent length (6ft) USB cord (not included) to link Fax to Desktop. However, once installed, Fax works great as printer with good quality output. Only difficult time was downloading updated printer driver from Brother site.

RELIABLE OFFICE EQUIPMENT
We upgraded and since our old faxes were also Brother brand we decided to purchase same brand. We were satisfied with product and were able to use for many years.

Nice looking machine
Much faster and neater than my old machine. Like the fact that it is laser and not filament.

Good for the money and use
It was hard to find a laser fax, that was just that. Most new products will do too many things we did not need and for which we did not want to pay extra.

Every thing I needed in a fax machine.
I don't use it often, but when I do, I need it to be fast.

Very Happy with Brother fax machine
We are very happy with our Brother Fax machine so far, it works very well with no issues so far.\
The Brother fax machine is far better than the other brands of fax machines that we owned over the years.

Excellent Fax Machine
Very user friendly for individuals who have never owned a fax machine.
The machine itself is well built.

I really like this model & would say it is the way to go for small office use! Of course you can't go wrong with Brother!

Only on flaw
Love everything about this fax, except the display screen.  It is too small and not bright enough at all.  The fax is on a lower shelf so the lighting is not the best, but the display has no back light at all making it almost impossible to see.

Good Features
We have not had any problems since purchasing our machine several months ago.  We do not use the phone feature so we had to tape down the handset to keep it from falling off the hook.

Good features, easy to use.
Have been very happy with it so far.  Does not get extensive use but is great as a small home business fax and copier.  Customer service has been helpful when needed.

Works just fine for us!
We use this in a very small office.  We only use it for sending and receiving faxes.  We have not, and do not intend to, use it for copying.  The set up was very easy - I did it myself without any issues.  We are very happy with this fax machine.

Good, but......
I like that this can also function as a printer. I don't like that the auto feed is only 20 pages. Even at that, if I try to fax more than about 10 pages, it sucks in multiple pages and I have to start over. I am replacing this with Brother Compact Monochrome Laser All-in-One Multifunction Printer, MFCL2710DW, as it has a 50 page auto feed and is cheaper and it is an all in one.

Great feature; easy to use!
Recently our Brother Intellifax 2800 that we purchased in 2003 finally died. In view of the fact it had lasted such a long time, we wanted to stick with another Brother product.  The Intellifax 2840 we got has all the features we need and we really appreciate the capacity of the paper drawer! I highly recommend Brother products!
