Will this machine receive in color faxes sent in color?

From my experience, it seems to prefer to default to black and white for faxes. I have yet to receive / send a color fax successfully without it being "downgraded" to black and white due to restrictions from the sending / receiving fax machine on the other end. The black and white faxes do come out quite chrisp, however. I've owned this machine for 2 years and overall I'm satisfied with it.

I take it to kinkos and it prints in black or white or color. Depends what kind of printer you have

No, the fax works like an incoming call. It is a very good machine that covers all bases. We are the owners of a small business and this is perfect for us!

Yes but that's a loaded answer. The printer's other functions go offline. It will no longer scan or print two-sided (unsure if it'll fax). As people say above I do believe it needs yellow to print even in black and to clean the cartridges.

Yes, it has various colors. Absolutely great machine. Haven't regretted the purchase for a single minute.

Yes. On top of scanner is a button that says C/BW and shows up on the scanner screen as color. Mono for black and white. Push the button for which one you want.

Of course it does. You just have to set it to "black" only in the printer driver software.Otherwise how will it know it's only text?

No. The printer requires that all cartridges be in place to operate; otherwise, you get an error message. And the printer's technology can tell exactly which color cartridge is missing.

yes. But in a smaller amount. Plus, the ink costs more than the machine and doesn't last long. I use the machine for fax out only and have the print function turned off. Using the machine for incoming faxes would put you in the poor house.

ANswer is no. Wouldn't recommend this machine to anyone and the only reason I bought it was because I needed a fax/answering machine combo....only was I could find. Works okay, but not great........

The printer doesn't like it. It's important to change your printing settings to grey, not color. You may have to do this every time you send anything to the printer.

Yes it does! Without a hitch. EASY to send faxes, as well.We wanted a basic fax machine and an affordable one, and the Brother Fax Machine did not disappoint us.

Yes ----but not automaticaly. Aftr you send the fax go to Menu and press the forward icon " > " then , ( reports, ) scroll through by pressing the forward icon to the one you want. ( sent journal, recvd journal, sending confirm ) then press ok

First to answer your question about this printer. No it will not do that. You do not need a computer to do what you want. There are online services that will send faxes via email. There's a small fee but cheaper than a printer/fax.

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, it scans in color. It gives you a choice of black and white, grayscale, or color. Obviously since it is a black and white printer it will not print in color but it will scan color to a file very nicely.
