    Can you use it as a phone as well as a fax or is there not a handset?

    Can you set it up as a wireless printer through a Livebox?

    Can you get cheap cartridges? Just found these

    I bought one of these last night - very good quality prints - easy set up.
    Front loading paper try was a bit fiddly but fine as is the USB cable tidy as mine kept giving close scanner error at first but fixed that.
    Well worth £45 IMO.
    Cheap cartridges from InkEmporium at £6 a set!!!!

    Dont forget your Free 3 Yr onsite Warranty offer at:

    http://www.brother.co.uk/g3.cfm/s_page/77630

    Use code EM0002 to claim.

    Or you can have a handheld printer or a 256MB USB Flash drive instead.

    For those who have one, is it really only 20cm (200mm) deep and a whole 45cm tall?

    Or please post the actual dimensions so I know if it will fit on my desk!
