Comment: This machine is just a piece of JUNK!
Even when we put in a $35 new ink (we actually bought two), it keeps telling us "CHECK CARTRIDGE".
Will shop for a replacement tomorrow, but will never buy a Sharp!

Summary: Ink Cartridge Fix 2009-03-25
Comment: I have the UX-A1000 (basically the same fax, but in ugly greys) and that uses the same ink cartridge as the UX-B700. I found this when looking for replacement cartridges: "I had the dry ink problem also after not using for a week. I was ready to order a new cartridge but first I tried soaking the printhead in distilled water about 10 minutes. Do not soak the cartridge just the printhead. Place in about 1/8 inches of water. Now my cartridge works fine." -From http://www.amazon.com/Sharp-UX-C70B-Black-Cartridge-UX-B700/dp/B00008NOQ1/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=office-products&qid=1237988885&sr=1-1
I plan to try it today, after I track down the bottle of distilled water we have hiding somewhere.

Summary: Piece of junk 2008-12-04
Comment: I only use my fax for very light, occasional fax reception. Echo the very expensive inkjet costs. Additionally, mine is essentially unuseable in receive now as I either continually have to perform a cleaning operation or I get "check cartridge" error messages. Avoid this fax machine.

Summary: Significant drawbacks 2008-03-25
Comment: This is an adequate fax. The paper feed has jammed twice for no apparent reason. Commands are a little awkward to execute and are not always intuitive. Footprint is compact, and the resend function works reasonably well. The major drawback is that it eats ink cartridges and the replacements are expensive. I receive a small volume of faxes, not more than ten pages a month, and usually less than that, but the cartridge runs dry after a few months. Per page costs are high. This is the third fax that I have owned, and the least economical. I would recommend buying another brand, based on on my experience.
Also, while you may refill cartridges, I have had poor luck with that solution.

Summary: Don't even think about it! 2007-06-19
Comment: If you make the same mistake I did and buy this machine, be prepared to change the ink constantly! It prints on average 112 pages a week and needs new ink every 7 days at $35.00 a pop. Needless to say, after owning it for one month it is going on the garbage heap.
