Brother FAX-575 Plain Paper Thermal Fax Review

I purchased this plain paper fax machine because it was compact and cheap.  It is great for a small office or any room where there is limited space.  It uses a thermal transfer ribbon cartridge instead of an ink cartridge.  Because it uses a ribbon cartridge, Brother is able to keep the manufacturing costs low.  The ribbon cartridge is easy to replace and will print up to 150 pages.

Despite its small size, this fax machine has all the features of a larger machine.  It comes with a 10 page auto document feeder.  It has 512 KB of memory, so it can save faxes when it runs out of paper.  It is also a copier so it can be used to make black-and-white copies.  In addition, there is a built-in handset for making and receiving phone calls.  It also has the ability to automatically dial stored numbers, and can scan a fax once and transmit it to multiple people.

This is a small, simple and reliable fax machine that is easy for anyone to setup and use.
