A necessity of basically any office now is to have a fax machine. Not just any fax machine either, but one that can manage a hefty load of work, and can do so with little effort. Nobody wants to lose time trying to figure out the fax machine, or spend hours going through a manual just to find that it takes a ton of steps to send one out each time. This particular model can do a lot of the tricks that you want in a fax machine. Even better is its ability to print out a confirmation sheet each time that a fax was sent to someone. This is to verify that you know whether it had been received or not, and it means that you have less concern about the transmission process itself.
The Brother Intellifax 2820 is one of a great line of Brother Fax machines. This particular model is built with a telephone handset, a speakerphone, and one touch dialing that can hold up to 200 locations. There is an easy to use keypad on the front of the machine where you can dial a fax, have the other end pick up, and submit the transmission in less than 10 seconds of time. The auto document feeder holds up to 20 pages, so you can place your document on the feeder, dial the number, and leave the room while your fax is being sent. The modem speed is at 14.4K bps with a top transmission speed of 6 seconds per page. So if you walk up with 20 pages, you can anticipate coming back in around 2 to 3 minutes and finding your fax has already been sent. This is enough time to go for a cup of coffee, and you walk away with no uncertainties of the Brother 2820 jamming while in the process.
The Brother 2820 is capable of making copies for you, so if for some reason your copy machine is broken, you can just use the fax machine to do it for you. It can do about 15 copies per minute, which is really nice in the pinch. The machine always gives a nicely legible printout and does so with such speed that you won’t know how you lived with a slower machine. It has a USB interface which runs at up to 1200 x 600 dpi resolution. If you like your prints lighter or darker, there are also 64 scales that you can adjust the outputs to adhere to.
If you are in the market for a fax machine and know that you want one which is both intelligent and easy to work with, then the Brother Intellifax 2820 is right for you. This could be a wonderful fax machine for either home or office use, and can probably be picked up at any office store.
