General Comments
Unless price is your only consideration, I would not recommend the Philips Magic 3 Primo fax machine. You have to insert faxes with the printed side facing you, which is counter-intuitive. If you have more than 1 fax machine in the office, then users will always put faxes in this one upside down.
It uses it own print film, which of course needs to be regularly replaced, even if you only use the machine for sending not receiving.
You cannot put more than 1 or 2 pages in the feeder at one time, otherwise it jams.
I cannot criticise this fax machine enough. It really is barely fit for its purpose.
