Brother Fax-2840 Printer Review

Expert review of the Brother Fax-2840 printer

Our Verdict:

This compact laser fax is a robust machine with copy and print capabilities, so it is versatile and efficient for a small or home office. The Brother Fax-2840 black and white fax machine is energy efficient to lower overall operating costs, and the addition of voice calls and an answering machine makes it more convenient to have as an all-around communications centre. However, the print function on the Fax 2840 is only optional and difficult to install.

Design

The Brother Fax-2840 laser fax machine has an understated 9kg frame with a tough industrial exterior, measuring 14.7 inches wide, 12.2 inches tall, and 14.6 inches deep. The sleek control panel has a busy yet organised layout for simplified operation, and its centrepiece is the subtle 16-character, two-line LCD screen. A telephone handset is part of the default setup. The Fax-2840 by Brother has a 33.6Kbps modem, a 20-page automatic document feeder, and a 250-sheet input capacity. The 2840 fax machine runs on 16MB of memory. High-speed USB 2.0 is a standard interface for computer connectivity.

Advantages

Ample speed, high quality laser faxing, high paper capacity and lower running costs are among the best features of the Brother 2840 laser fax printer. There are high capacity Brother Fax-2840 toner cartridges available to help minimise output costs from the device. Users can set up the 2840 fax as a printer if required. The Fax-2840 machine produces copies at 21cpm. There are time-saving features like automatic sending of faxes to multiple recipients and multitasking, such as saving a message into the memory while the machine is sending another message.

Disadvantages

The Brother Fax-2840's display window can be difficult to read, even when brightness has been maximised. A CD is required to enable the print function of the Brother Fax-2840 mono laser fax. Some users report that the CD doesn't come with the package and that drivers have to be downloaded.
