"One of only few MFC's that can forward your faxes via email"
Pros: Forwarding of faxes via email; great looking machine
Cons: Quirky, non-friendly user interface. A real pain to set up.
Summary: I "upgraded" to this machine from a Brother MFC 8500, which compared to this machine worked a lot more predictably. Although it's capable of much more than other MFC's (i.e. networking, e-mailing of faxes sent and received, scanning to usb flash drive, scanning to networked computer), it is not an easy machine to operate. Things that should take one or two key punches (faxing or scanning) require far more key strokes than they should. Sometimes the machine makes you repeat the entry since the machine hasn't warmed up. Otherwise, the main reason this machine is worth getting is the fax forwarding capability (a great convenience for me) and print quality which I think is excellent. It's really the forwarding of faxes (as pdf or tiffs) which really make up for this machine's shortcomings.
