Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The HP Fax 1250 Fax Machine is a compact, space-saving device that is ideal for small businesses and home offices. Its fast, efficient, and reliable operation gives you high quality results in less time, so you can focus on other things. One of the many special features of this fax is that it conveniently uses plain paper. Plus, it has 100 speed dials, a handset, a junk fax barrier, and scan-and-fax broadcasting. With the FAX 1250, you can even receive (and send) faxes in color.

Special Features
The Fax 1250 is designed for optimum speed, convenience, and quality. Unlike conventional fax machines, the Fax 1250 lets you fax and copy on plain paper in both black ink and color; the system also accommodates letter, legal, or A4 size paper. The Fax 1250 also makes multitasking a breeze by making it possible for you to scan and queue multiple outgoing faxes even while transmitting others. You can even store up to 200 incoming pages; there's no need to miss a fax if you run out of paper or ink. When printing multi-page faxes, it's easy to keep things neat with the 20-sheet output tray. For optimum readability, the system also allows you to reduce and enlarge copies by 25 to 400 percent.

Other convenient, time-saving options include the ability to locate and store fax numbers with the easy speed-dial search, and the paper-saving capability of blocking junk faxes by using caller ID to screen incoming calls. Plus, you can access printing supplies in one click anytime you need them: sign up at HP's "My Printing Supplies Store" and save a list of your printers for hassle-free ink, toner, and paper reordering.

Speed, Resolution, and Compatible Cartridges
The Fax 1250 works quickly and efficiently, offering you high productivity. With a transmission speed of three seconds per page, you'll never have to waste time waiting for a fax. Get high-quality results with the 300 x 300 dpi faxing resolution in photo mode and fax in as little time as three seconds per page with the 33.6 Kbps modem. Save time with the 100 programmable speed dials and 20-page automatic feeder for multiple-page faxing at the same time as you save space: the tray folds up, making this compact machine easy to fit where you need it. This machine also has an incoming fax memory of up to 200 pages, so even large faxes come through with ease. Plus, the 100-sheet input tray and 20-page ADF ensure that there's no need to constantly re-supply paper.

For added conveniences, the Fax 1250 is compatible with three different ink cartridges: the HP 21 Black Inkjet Print Cartridge (5 ml), HP 22 Tri-color Inkjet Print Cartridge (5 ml), and the HP 27 Black Inkjet Print Cartridge (10 ml).

Award-Recognized Support and Warranty Information
The Fax 1250 comes with a one year limited warranty. Plus, you can rely on HP's renowned Total Care service and support, which J.D. Power and Associates has recognized as consistently providing "an outstanding customer service experience."

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fax Machine, August 4, 2007

This review is from: HP FAX 1250 Fax Machine (Black) (Office Product)

I have no idea for the negative reviews read here as I have nothing but good things to say about this fax machine. It faxes clearly, is a breeze to set up, and uses HP 27 cartridges for around 220 pages per cartidge. They can be easily purchased on line for about $11.00 each. You can easily fold two trays away when not sending faxes to conserve room. I purchased my machine at Office Depot, for $129.00, but I had a store credit there so I saved some additional money. I don't find it noisey, nor do I have any jam issues. The material used (plastic) might seem somewhat flimsy, but I don't stand on my machine. I'm very pleased. By the way, you don't need to replace the color cartridge if it goes empty, as long as you keep it in the machine. This way, you can just fax and save money with the black only cartridge.

!!!!!!DON'T BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!!!!!!

I purchased my HP Fax 1250 a few weeks ago, and it is easily the worst fax machine I have ever had the misfortune of trying to use.
I was sold on it because it was from HP and I figured they sold decent products. I was sadly mistaken about this one.

It uses more paper and ink to print out worthless reports that don't even tell you what is going wrong so you can fix the problem than it does actually faxing.

The keypad is maddeningly inept at its job, which is to enter numbers in. You have to double check every single digit that is entered because you may think you have entered the fax number in correctly, by making sure you mash on the button until your finger tip turns white, but it will still probably not register at least one of the numbers and then your fax will not go through, and until you go through and carefully inspect every aspect of the erroneous error report it gives you you will not be able to find out what is wrong until you double check the number that is in the middle of the page.

!!!!!!DON'T BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!!!!!!

Bought brand new, looked good, set up easy.....then, Dial tone button would not pop out, no dial tone. Ringer would not work. I can't believe HP would let this leave the factory with these defects!
