Yes it does! Without a hitch. EASY to send faxes, as well.We wanted a basic fax machine and an affordable one, and the Brother Fax Machine did not disappoint us.

Yes, it can send and receive faxes, tho I only use it to send. I'm on my second MP830, the first one worked perfectly for 6 yrs, until a rubber band popped into the feed mechanism, unbeknownst.

On the front of it, it says Print, Scan, Copy, Photo, Web - no fax. Hope this helps.mj

Yes, this machine does print a fax that someone is sending you. If you happen to be out of paper or toner when the fax comes in, it will store the fax(es) internally until you correct the situation and it will then print any faxes that have come in.

Yes it does but I had to connect it. With cd use. Not plug and play. Works good but the fax picks up in the middle of calls sometimes. And not the best with cards or anything thick. But prints from any phone or computer easily.

NO answer devise in this machine. It will not interfere with an other answer machine ifthey are hooked up and set properly. I bought the fax to sent faxes only, receiving only if I know one is being sent. Sam

you will be able to fax upto few papers only, they something will get stuck, this is from my experience, I send it back, check other reviews before you buy it

Im not sure. I know it can fax to email. Not sure how that was set up though. Sorry wish I could be more helpful.

Yes it does. You will have to feed the paper back into the printer after it prints the first sides, but it will print 2-sided. No 2-sided faxing tho.

You can send fax by having your phone line plugged in; and going to fax using the touchpad on the device. It does fax pretty easy. My complaint with the machine is that the touchpad does not work good. I often have to touch several times before the machine reacts.

Thanks to everyone for the help on this. I am going to try the suggestions and see if that works. I'd really like to be able to do an outbound fax anytime and receive a fax by pressing the receive button.I fear that the fax picking up in the middle of the call may be due to using VOIP with Vonage as it will occasionally make a faxish noixe when a second call comes in. Will report back the results -- ping me on this list by adding a reply if I don't (i get an email on each reply).

This appears to be a question best answered by HP. Although, I would go through the basics: 1. ensure you have paper loaded, 2. ensure the incoming call was in fact a fax, 3. ensure the fax was properly sent from the sender, 4. ensure there is not another device picking up the call first, 5. ensure the machine is set to receive faxes.

If the machine is turned on and waiting it answers and receives a fax automatically yes. If it where turned completely off no. We have had this machine in an office for a couple months now and love it.

YES! In fact it is my favorite part of this machine. You plug in a phone line and tell it to share the line. There is no separate line needed. The phone rings to receive calls and when a fax comes in the phone rings and the printer turns on and receives the fax. So much easier than other machines I have used. Faxing is just as easy. Put it in the scanner. Select fax function, put in your number and press OK. All done.

It works sometimes. It always works sending. But about half the time I get an error on incoming faxes.
