SPEED :
The specifications say that this unit can print black at about six pages per minute and color at about three pages per minute. This was not bad back in the days, but now we have the need-for-speed which this unit lacks. If it were up to me, I would try to sell this unit on eBay and purchase a new unit that can meet our speed requirements nowadays.

The transmission speed as in the specifications is about 4 to 6 pages per minute. This is good for transmitting a couple of pages at a time, but when you want to send lets say a presentation package, it will take some time. This is when you wish you had a faster fax machine because you will not be tying up the fax line for too long. This usually results in some missed faxes from our vendors or suppliers.


SENDING AND RECEIVING FAXES :
When you want to send a fax with this unit, all you have to do is lay your sheets on the document feeder facing downwards. Then you either dial the numbers manually, or use the speed-dial function or the one touch-dial function. It is that simple. So then you see the unit scanning all of the documents in to its half megabytes or 512 kilobytes of memory. From my experience, it can store about twenty five pages in memory when transmitting. Once the documents are scanned, you will hear the machine dialing the recipients fax number. After a connection has been confirms, it will start transmitting the documents. When the transmission is complete you will hear a long beep to confirm. But if for some reason it fails, you will hear three short beeps to warn you that something went wrong; it usually retries transmission two more times in about one to two minute intervals. Then when it fails the last time, it will print the cover page of the documents being sent with a failure message.


PRINTING FROM YOUR COMPUTER :
The CD-Rom that came in the package has drivers for your computer to give you the ability to print using this fax machine. I would not recommend this function as the quality is not that great. I would only recommend this unit for fax purposes only.
