I need a fax machine with some other functions.....
My trusty old Officejet 590 has conked out.......the scanning head is ferked and the rollers are knackered....i've tweaked and tuned and cleaned and oiled and whatnot but it's knackered.......
So I'm after another one.......It's got to be stand-alone fax capable, reasonably high speed printer USB2 printer (colour and B&W), and from there i want some bells and whistles that aren't necessary but very desirable.
Oh, and it can't be expensive......less than 300 quid.....
I thought I'd found the Ideal thing today.........
The Epson RX600.......it reads and prints directly from storage cards, has a colour lcd to preview....it's a competent text printer and is rated as good for photos and graphics, it's a good scamnner but it's only 230 quid and that was high street price.....it also has a feature that i really really like, a film/negative scanner, so i could transfer all my old photos to Digital and store/use them...........but it's not a fax......
I suppose i could use it in conjunction with one of the many fax/modem cards i have stuffed away in drawers, but TBH i want an easy to use standalone fax function that i don't have to leave the PC on for and that will do all of the things this Epson does.
There's a nice HP multifunction jobby ( the HP PSC 2400 Photosmart) at about that price too...but it doesnt do all the nice photo and film things that the epson does......
Any ideas comments????
