This is my second brother laser fax machine; I replaced the first after 5+ years to get the 33.6 increased speed, not because it wore out (or broke). I have had it over 13 months and remain glad I upgraded; it's fast enough both in and out (just saw the review complaining about this when I came to Amazon to buy toner). Maybe commercial fax machines are faster but for my home based business its quite sufficient(1 to 50 page faxes are my norm). What I really like about Brother is the ink cartridges; use them for my laser printer needs too. My cost per page are lower than HP ever was and I prefer having a dedicated fax better then an all in one. The only thing I would change about Brother is the firm's lack of recycling involvement. They do not provide a prepaid label so I have to drop the cartridges elsewhere.

We bought this fax machine on the basis of the reviews above. We are certainly not very happy with it, compared to our HP old inkjet fax which finally bit the dust.

It seems not all that fast, as it reads everything, puts it into the memory and then faxes it.
The display is not large and is generally not very helpful,eg when a fax hasn't gone through and is waiting to redial, it states that the machine is sleeping, so you cannot tell by looking at the machine that the fax has not gone through yet. I am not a mindreader so cannot tell that the machine is waiting for 5 minutes to redial.

Design - the buttons for the automatic dialing are very small. The output tray gets in the way of my sleeve when I use the buttons.

The print-outs are horrible. The quality is like something out of the dark ages, it is so dotty. It shows the number of the fax as the left hand column, something we don't need to know.

We want to print out the fax log for the previous day, but cannot seem to get less than the last 50 faxes, so we throw away several pages. Our last fax machine got 30 faxes on 1 page.

We were going to change it for another machine but we couldn't find a machine without flaws.

It does take a lot of pages through without jamming, a real positive.

I couldn't get clear enough resolution on the cheaper Brother Fax. This is important to me because I work with a lot of numbers. This 2920 Fax finally answers my need for clarity without even using the Fine Resolution button. It also was easy--intuitive--to set up and get started right away.

This fax machine has been a great upgrade from the 2800 model we had in the office. The output "tray" is a much better design, it actually holds the incoming faxes in that spot, versus the incoming pages flying out of the machine. Overall, we're all very satisfied with this purchase.

I purchased one of these for one of our busy medical offices after our old fax pooped out. It was an urgent need. We receive and send a high volume of faxes. It has worked well and our office manager is very happy with it. We liked it so much that when our other office's fax machine started acting up last week I bought a second one.

It is fast and with good quality printing. It is also nice to be able to scan while faxes are coming in or going out.

This is my second Brother Fax machine, and after thorough review of all that's available out there, Brother leads the way in Fax technology. Great machine, excellent value.

Brother High Speed Laser IntelliFax 2920

I bought this fax to replace a seven year old Brother MFC1970 and what an improvement!
Resolution, Speed, Cost/Page, Features.
Great value!

We purchased this laser to replace a HP ink all-in-one, which died when the ink cartridge exploded. The price per page is cheaper than ink. The quality (resolution) of the printed page is better. This is the first Brother that we purchased and I would purchase another.

had this machine for about 3 months now. Works great... no issues whatsoever. Feels and sounds solid. Bought it primarily to replace the fax functionality of HP7310 multi-function printer/fax/copier/scan.

This machine is efficent and works very well in a small space. Def. a product to have at home or the office.
