Most Helpful Negative Review

Do Not Purchase!!!!

I work for a non-profit and purchased this machine to save money. After I recieved this fax machine, in the first day it was making a high pitch squeling noise while feeding paper. It would also feed the paper sideways and cause it to jam up. I received 20+ transmission verification reports and if I wanted/needed a fax to go through I would have to hand feed it. I called Brother and troubleshooted with them numerous times until finally I sent it back and they sent me a "new one". This one had the same problems, so I sent it back and they sent me another one. This new one had the same problems and I called in complete frustration with no avail. I was told Brother does not offer any refund and the only other option is to send it in to be repaired, which I did. After getting the fax machine back from repair, it continued to have the same problem only it was now worse! I am now in the process of writing to a Customer Service Manager. I am writing this review as a warning and to save you the hassle that I have been and still continue to go through.

Comments about Brother® IntelliFAX® 1270e Plain-Paper Fax:

Now days I rairly need or use a fax but it is so nice to have when I do need one. I am still setting it up but am sure that it will serve us well for years to come as the last fax/phone was in use for nearly 15 years before it gave out. I like that I can program in many phone numbers and have them ready to use with just a touch to the keyboard. All in all I am positive that we are going to enjoy it.

  A:
  Unfortunately, this machine is a stand alone fax machine. You would not be able to connect your computer to this machine to print your emails. An all-in-one machine would allow you to send and receive faxes as well as print documents from your email. If you would like assistance locating a machine to meet your needs, please contact us at 1-800-333-3330. We would be happy to assist you.
