BUYING TIPS...
Remember to check out the cost of replacements for toner and ink cartridges. (Don't just buy the cheapest machine--the cartridges are what will run up your budget in the long run.)
When in doubt,
stick with the well-known brand names (the Brother fax machines get great ratings). If necessary, the well-known brands will be easier to repair.
Check the
CUSTOMER RATINGS. First, check the number of STARS and then look to see how many people have reviewed the machine. Lots of reviews means the machine is a good seller and may have been around a while and has a longer track record so you may be benefitting from feedback on long-term reliability.
Be sure to actually
READ the REVIEWS (especially those with fewer stars to see what problems they had and why they gave it a poor rating.)
Before buying, decide how disastrous it might be if you miss an important fax. (If you're in the medical, banking, or legal profession, for example.)
Remember, most fax machines are now smart enough to recognize
"distinctive ring" telephone service. This means you may be able to save money by letting your fax machine SHARE another little-used phone line and buying the fax its own DEDICATED PHONE NUMBER. The fax machine will answer only those in-coming calls for that phone number. Check with your phone company about their "distinctive ring" service for adding a second phone number to an existing phone line. The yearly savings on phone service could actually pay for the cost of buying your new fax machine. NOW... click on the links below and browse around to find the perfect fax for your needs.
