It has fax capability (send/receive) though I wouldn't call it a "fax machine." Dedicated fax machines typically have a lot more fax-specific features you won't find on any multi-function machine. If you want to occasionally send or receive a fax, this will do just fine.

Sorry James, I haven't used it but I believe it is only used for faxing.Rick

Yes it can be set to fax only. It has 3 settings available: phone with manual fax receipt, fax only, and phone and fax which is the best setting. and answer machine

I hooked mine up for that purpose, but haven't been able to figure out the fax function on my new printer. So I am not much help.

I know it will do a two sided fax so i would assume yes though I have never tried.

If the machine is turned on and waiting it answers and receives a fax automatically yes. If it where turned completely off no. We have had this machine in an office for a couple months now and love it.

This model does not. I believe you have to go with the DCP8190DN for faxing capability.

Yes it does but I had to connect it. With cd use. Not plug and play. Works good but the fax picks up in the middle of calls sometimes. And not the best with cards or anything thick. But prints from any phone or computer easily.

Color printing and scanning is all I use it for. I believe it has a fax feature as well however I have never used that.

Yes, this machine does print a fax that someone is sending you. If you happen to be out of paper or toner when the fax comes in, it will store the fax(es) internally until you correct the situation and it will then print any faxes that have come in.

Did you buy this unit?I'm looking to buy one too. Does the fax software allow you to receice a fax to your computer before printing it?

You will need a phone line input in order to use the FAX function. The line can be shared for sending with your home line. Receiving on a shared line is more difficult. There are services on the internet that you can use your PC TO send and receive Fax messages they give you a separate phone number for this. Monthly charges come with this.

Yes, I use the modem with Windows Fax and Scan and it can be configured to only answer as a fax when you tell it to. When the computer is on and the phone rings a little box appears on the computer screen asking if you want to answer as a fax.

Does this have e-Fax, first 20 faxes free? Does it come with a unique fax/phone number?

Yes, it is also a fax. I have never used the fax feature so I can't speak to it's utility as a fax, but the machine is a printer/scanner/copier/fax. It has always worked very well and I have no complaints except that it has a voracious appetite for ink.
