Recommend a DECENT fax machine for home office?

Posted by Printer | Posted in Other - Electronics | Posted on 08-04-2010

so right now for my home office fax machine, mostly used for outgoing to my parents home work office, and some things to customers as well, not high volume faxing, right now i have this piece of junk HP fax 1010. It has never worked right, always seems to have Send Errors, Jammed Document problems, starts to send and then stops, has this weird ring sometimes when im trying to send a fax.

it needs to go, it needs to fly out some 2 story window and smash to the ground (ok to be environmentally safe it will be recycled upon replacement)

Suggestions PLEASE on a decent, nice working, compact fax machine that I can get for say less than $180. It doesn’t need to do a ton, mostly fax, i’ve got a scanner/printer combo, i know most faxes are combos, so if you want to recommend one that has other features thats fine, but reading reviews on Amazon, Tigerdirect, New Egg, would like some good words on someone who has one they like.

Thanks SO much !!
also does faxing a document over a phone line that is VOIP have more of a chance to mess up the fax transmission ?

I’m trying to figure out if GARMIN or TOMTOM is the way to go for a GPS?

Posted by Printer | Posted in Other - Electronics | Posted on 20-03-2010

I’m going to get my husband a GPS for Christmas because he’s obsessed with map questing as it is but we don’t have a printer so then he gets mad that he has to write directions down lol.It’s a win/lose situation but I’ve read alot of reviews online about Garmin GPS products and TomTom products and am having a problem deciding between which brand to get! I’m looking to spend $250.00 at the most!

Anyone have either of these?Or know anyone that does!?Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! THANKS in advance!

I was online looking for a printer and found one on sale. I went to the store to buy it and they told me it was not on sale. I ask them to go online and look. He did, came back and said it’s not onsale. I bought it anyway. I came home and double checked and it was on sale. I called the store and they said print it out and come back to the store. I said no just take it off my credit card. After I talked to 4 people, a manager got on and said calm down. I did raise my voice so she hung up on me.

Now I’m pissed!!! I called their corperate office on the other side of the country and told them what happened and the printer was onsale. They ask if I wanted to file a complaint and I said yes, They also are sending me a giftcard worth double what I would have saved on the sale.

I’m still pissed!!! Do I call the BBB and accuse BestBuys of false advertising? The sales people were so friggin rude, I can’t let it go. What would you do?
it was an instore ad, corperate conformed it. They saw the same thing I did. I did yell only after being jerk around on the phone then finally greated with “what’s your problem”.

P,S. this is no life lesson. It’s life… I wouldn’t have done anything different, fortuneately. I just don’t like rude, condisending and PRETENTIOUS people.
