Great fax and copier. Quiet and energy efficient. Automatically ignores non-fax calls. So far, very reliable, with no problems. Toner cartridge cost is reasonable.

The machine was easy to set up and works well both as a fax and as a printer. At first, I thought I was only going to use it as a fax machine, but my desktop went on the blink and I replaced it with a notebook running Windows 7 starter edition. I found the drivers online, downloaded them, and used the machine to print some maps & e-mails. It prints very quickly -- much more so than the HP LaserJet 6P I have.

Suppose this Canon L90 is located in my upstairs office, but right now I'm in the downstairs kitchen preparing lunch. The phone rings, & when I pick up the extension phone in the kitchen, there is a beep, meaning it's a fax.

With my ancient Panasonic, I simply press Star-9 (* 9), and the fax-phone in my office takes over & begins to print the incoming fax. I don't have to leave the kitchen, and can pick up the print-out at any time.

But with the Canon L90, in order not to lose the incoming fax, I have to run through the house, up the stairs to my office, and press a button on the L90; then I have to run back down to the kitchen (IIRC within 30 seconds) and hang up the extension phone in the kitchen. What a pain in the butt!

The L90 might be OK if you have a separate & dedicated telephone line exclusively for faxes, but it is just plain unacceptable for someone who has a single telephone line with one or more extensions (we have 6 phones in all).

Had this faxphone l90 for 1 year. Pickup roller will not pick up paper.
Machine is broken.
Look elsewhere for a fax machine.

I've been long time user of laser printers, but this is my first all-in-one laser printer. It works good as laser printer and copy machine but disapointed in fax. It produces nice print very fast as printer and copier. So far so good! However, I've a serious issues in fax. First problem is ring volume not adjustable, even after 0(my intention was turn off) setting, still ringing so loud. Second issue is fax speed not adjustable. I use a MagicJack for my house phone line that uses VoIP. MagicJack surgested to use slowest speed for faxing over VoIP. I've exchanged few emails with Canon tech support but the customer service person was not knowledgeble. I've gave up on them. In conclusion, it's good laser copier and printer for the money if you don't mind loud ringing. :-(

I read all the reviews good and very few bad. I found the bad to be non-existant. Though it has been used a minimal amount of time, this fax has been up to Canon's high standards. It will do everything it says it will.You can also fit it on a 16" X 16" footprint as long as there is room for the handset.
The only drawbacks are that the remote control is only good on the phone connected directly to the machine and the user guide is a huge download from Canon. You get a quick start guide and a user manual in the box. No, the user manual and user guide are not the same.Canon Faxphone L90 Laser Fax and Printer (2234B007AA)

I have had this product for a year and have continually had problems with sending and receiving faxes. The majority of error messages say the sending or receiving machine is incompatible with G3. Everytime I call support they tweak this or that and tell me that something new has caused the problem. The people in Customer Support are very nice, but no one has ever been able to fix the problem. When you run a business and you can't get your signed Orders it gets very frustrating. I have one supplier that I could never get through to and had to e-mail my orders. I bought a new Brother fax last week and now I have no transmission problems since.

Just bought this fax machine and we are very pleased. Ordering was easy and delivery was very fast, just like this fax...love it!

I bought this printer because of the big rebate from Canon, but I did not expect a such great printer. I have not tried out the fax yet, but its quality is great as a printer and copier. Besides, Amazon's service is really the best. It has been my favorite on-line store for years.

Looks decent. I got it at a cheap price. Good service too so I can't complain.
