This is an ok machine, if you don't need it to send faxes. I bought three of them at the same time since; one machine was for me, the other to my brother and the third one to my dad. Since my brother doesn't use this machine to send faxes, the only thing he complains is that the black copy and printing (taking into consideration the different levels of quality) of this machine is actually slower than the previous machine he had earlier (HP 950c). However, my dad and I are pretty disappointed with the HP 7130. Every time we send a fax, there are error messages and it fails to send it. It takes forever to send a fax that actually reaches the desired location. We probably have operated in the past about 12 different fax machines, and I can tell you without doubts, HP 7130 IS THE WORSE FAX MACHINE I have ever encountered
