Product Description

Product Description

The new Sharp UX-B800SE Broadband Fax was designed with your communication needs in mind. It provides you with voice and fax communication capabilities as well as fax to e-mail without the need of your PC. For small businesses or the traveling salesperson, Sharp's new Broadband Fax solves all your faxing needs. Never miss important faxes while you are away. With our convenient Fax Forward feature, you can preprogram all your faxes to be sent to your e-mail address while traveling. You will never miss a business opportunity and never have to pay another hotel fax bill again. Best of all, there is no service to sign up for, so no monthly fee. Need to send an article to your sales staff immediately? The UX-B800SE makes this easy. Just place the article in the 20-page document feeder and set the fax to automatically send to up to 37 stored e-mail addresses. Recipients will receive as an attached PDF or TIFF file directly in their e-mail. You can also manually type in unlimited e-mail addresses to send. Best of all, it comes equipped with a QWERTY keyboard for easy typing capability. Free faxing at no additional charge! Since the UX-B800SE hooks up to your ISP via cable or DSL modem, no telephone toll charges are applied when you fax to an e-mail address. Of course, the UX-B800 also hooks up to your land line telephone for traditional incoming and outgoing faxing.

1.0 out of 5 stars doesn't work with SMTP authentication, December 19, 2006

By	=CC= (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

This idea a real killer...
but the UX-B800SE is a partial failure.

Purchased one but returned it the 2nd day.

If your internet/email provider needs the SMTP authentication before sending out email, such as AT&T Yahoo!DSL and many of the major email service providers, you are stuck, period. There's no workaround.

5.0 out of 5 stars SLICK!, September 21, 2007

By	Mal (Illinois, USA) - See all my reviews

This is one slick piece of kit. Quite easy to to setup with a bit of network basics under your belt. Plug in phone line to a spare jack and then a CAT5 cable to a spare router port. I then manually entered static IP information into FAX machine (even easier if you use DHDP) and then setup options on FAX how I wanted it. To add, edit or delete email addresses, etc I then went to internet explorer, typed http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, which is the FAX machine's IP and used the internet based configuration page. Up and running in less than 10 minutes. I use PDF as the format and get pretty darn good quality documents. I used PDF because every computer should have adobe reader installed these days. Admittedly a bit more effort is involved to setup options specific to how you want to use it but I found it very, very easy to install and setup. No harder than any other FAX machine really.

I only FAX a few pages once or twice a week. For large business usage you may need to think twice on a larger more expensive make/model.

Pro : cheap price, duplexing, scans quickly, good scan memory size, relatively easy setup (maybe not so for a novice but instructions are clear and concise), don't have to use the somewhat expensive ink cartridges on the fax but have them go straight to email and then I print them on my laser printer ... the list of good points goes on and on and on ...

Cons : None so far

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent fax, January 12, 2007

By	Wlodzimierz Daca "Wlodek" (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased one in Sams Club. I was hesitant after reading available reviews which were pretty discouraging. Anyway I deciced to give it a try. Out of the box everything was working perfect, connetion to the router was quick, I check IP address and was able to open web interface. Configuration of e-mail service was quick and easy. It is great to have all faxes in the e-amil. I am so glad that I decide to invest some time to try that smart machine.
