Sharp UXB20 Inkjet Fax Machine

I liked my original sharp same model which I had for years. When it came time to replace it, I found all the other models cost a great deal more.

I have some technical savvy, but this FAX machine has got to be the worst appliance I have ever used.

1. The paper for faxing NEVER feeds right. I have to hand-feed this thing one sheet at a time.
2. Virtually every FAX sent to me that has more than one page gives me an E-1 communications error.
3. When faxing to someone else, this thing habitually pulls through two sheets at a time.

I am so sick of this thing with it's paper jams, communications errors and inability to feed paper right, I'm about ready to throw this thing in the middle of the road and gleefully laugh as car after car runs over it.

There is one nice thing I can say about it though: The only way it could be worse is if flames shot out of it and it burned my office down every time there was an incoming fax.

Very good product for price I paid. Like inkjet cartridge (no thermal roll)I use it sparingly, but am very pleased with performance, so far.

This broke after about 20 sheets of paper. The intake doesn't work now and I have to hand-feed each sheet very carefully. Even then it only "takes" about half the time. It doesn't work for incoming because of this either. Total waste of money.

The Sharp UX-B20 Inkjet Fax machine that we bought has been working fine so far. We got it a couple of months ago. The copy utility works fine. We received a fax from my wife's Avon District Manager and it came out with acceptable quality.

We have not had a chance to actually send a fax with it yet, but I'm sure it will work fine. The only reason that I gave the machine four stars instead of five is that the ink cartridges were a bit steep in price for a single color inkjet fax machine. We paid about $26.00 for the first ink cartridge.

My wife is an active Avon Representative and I have a popular pro-gun Web site. We needed a fax machine for occasional faxing and decided to go this route instead of going with one of the broadband faxing companies that charge about $8.00 a month. We will probably only be faxing documents a dozen times a year and this machine fit the bill for us.
