It will last you for years
We bought our Brother 770 fax machine when I started my business in 1998 and it is still going strong! I have actually purchased a few updated machines over the years. They keep breaking down, and we pull out the trusty 770 once again. This is the only piece of office equipment we have not had to replace in ten years. No frills, but boy is it reliable. 2008-09-08
Faxes being sent frequently jam
This thing can't pull a piece of paper strait through no matter what. One side always pulls faster than the other, so you eventually have the paper 1) being printed at an angle and 2) jamming unless you're there to try to guide it through.
Secondly, the cartridges are outrageously expensive. I still use this machine because I only get/send a fax every now and then, but if I were a regular faxer, I'd trash this Brother in a second. The company should have recalled all of this model.

Constant paper jamming problems- beware
I've had this model fax for about 4 years now and have been plagued by paper jamming--very frustrating. I found it worked best with 24 lb paper but still I need a more dependable fax and cannot deal with having to clear paper jams every couple of days.
Because of this I'm giving this fax away for free and getting the HP 1040.

Good features for the price
I'm not a fax wiz, but the quick reference chart got me through the initial setup of this machine. For incoming faxes it has worked flawlessly.... outgoing faxes can sometimes be a challenge. However, (as with most machines) if you line the paper up right, and don't attempt to put anything less than an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper in, you should have problem free faxing and/or copying. The roll-type printing cartridge does seem to disappear quickly, and it can be challenging to find replacement cartridges unless you live next to a big office supply store (tip: if you don't require crisp incoming faxes,... you can re-roll the cartridge back and re-use it at least one more time). :)
Overall: for the price and small space it takes up, I believe it is worth getting. However, if you don't want to go through a small learning curve figuring out how to use it properly, pass it up.

HORRIBLE!! Shopping for its replacement!
I have this fax machine now - and I am looking for a replacement to it...and here I stumple across it. I highly recommend you DO NOT buy it! We have a horrible time faxing or copying more than one page..the rollers like to eat up and jam the paper. 2002-12-07
