Canon Fax Machines

By Anne Ahira

Fax machines are a part of everyday life, how many times have you  needed one, even if it were for something simple and no one in town had a commercial fax machine? Or they had one and wanted to charge you an arm and a leg to use it?

Businesses are even more dependent on fax machines than the average person is. They depend on them to send and receive important documents. The inability to do so could affect business drastically.

So what is a good choice in fax machines? Canon fax machines are available in many sizes and suitable for several applications. Take for example the Canon L170 fax machine.

Features

• Laser fax
• 450 page memory
• 32 speed dials
• 100 coded dialings
• Telephone hand set
• 406 x 391 dpi
• USB

Pros

These Canon fax machines can appear to be cheaply made; when you first begin putting one together, you might even call the pieces flimsy. However when you get the finished product up and running you will find it is anything but cheaply made.

Speed is of the essence in some circumstances, especially a busy office with a ton of work to do. Canon fax machines like the L170 answer this problem with a fast 19 page per minute printer.

Printer and fax machine in one handy unit, but can be a major headache if the machine is overly noisy or a hassle to use. Neither of these will be an issue with these canon fax machines.

They run very quietly and are a breeze to set up once you get through putting them together.

For Canon fax machines rated for small business, use the price on this model is very reasonable. It usually retails for $350 at online retailers but if you watch, you can find them on sale for about $100 cheaper.

Cons

Units sold a year ago or so, these Canon fax machines were prone to paper jams. It seems this was an issue whether the machine was used heavily or not, recent reviews have reported this is no longer an issue but it bears mentioning anyway.

The unit ships with a starter cartridge, that means you will only get about 300 pages before you will need to purchase a full cartridge, and as with many printers and fax machines, they are not cheap.

Bottom Line

You could do a whole lot worse for a whole lot more money! These Canon fax machines have a well balanced mix of features and price with few if any functionality problems.

If you are in need of a new fax machine for your busy office this one could be right for you.
