Great machine that does what it should
I love my Brother 885 Fax machine and message center. This is a great machine that I use for a small home business, and it does what it is suppose to do very well. I always get my messages and faxes, its memory works as a backup if you run out of paper, and it has a blinking light if you get a message (a feature I use to take for granted before trying Panasonic and Sharp machines that didn't have this feature, and many paper jams!)
I don't use the phone handset, which seems flimsy, but aga...

Not worth the paper
This FAX machine is not worth the paper you'll print messages on. It comes with a ribbon reminiscent of some manual typewriter you discarded in the pre-computer era, except that that old typewriter did a better job. Incoming FAXes are barely legible, a fact you'll discover after you've spent your entire evening trying to set this bozo up. Outgoing FAXes work better. The phone part is a lightweight piece of junk. I didn't get so far as any incoming messages. ...

Poor Choice for Busy Office
This machine actually has a piece of carbon paper on a roll that you have to re-roll or replace every time it runs out. It's unbelievable in this information age to have to deal with such a rinky-dink set-up. The copies aren't consistent at all. There are much better choices available.

buy something else
re: the brothers intellifax 885mc. I bought this machine as I had an earlier model that I loved. It was easy to use, lasted a few years and inspired me to buy a new one. What a mistake. Even with graduate degrees the manual is difficult and cumbersone and one can't figure out how to make it work without it.
I tried the "greener" replacement film without the cartridge and after 15 minutes of trying to get it loaded, I took it to Office Depot to see if they could do better. Another 15 ...

Crappy, flimsy cartridge. Impossible to replace.
I hate this fax.
Trying to insert a new cartridge is an exercise in frustration. I've been at it for a half hour now, and can't figure it out.
