Summary: Replacement FAX
Comment: Purchase HP1040 FAX/Copier to replace recalled HP1010. Very pleased as the 1040 uses the same cartridge, looks the same, and does the job I need it to do.

Summary: Multiple buyer of the HP 1040 fax machine
Comment: I work for a company that has 10 retail stores, and all are equipped with fax machines. I'm slowly replacing various brand fax machines with the HP 1040. So far, all of the HP 1040 fax machines are working flawlessly.

I'm amazed at all the negative reviews for the HP 1040 fax machine on Amazon. Most people will not leave a positive review for a product that is working fine for reasons such as....

"I don't have the time"
"I have better things to do"
"It's such a pain to write reviews for products"

Writing negative reviews becomes a "priority" once the product fails.

Summary: BEWARE!!!
Comment: I purchased this fax machine for a small business. I need to send and or recieve a fax about 12 times per year. I am not sure about the quality of this item because I can never use it!! I have 2 phone lines and the machine cannot determine when to pick up with the fax machine. If it is plugged in it picks up the phone and my callers get the annoying fax squeal. I was on the phone for 5 hours off and on with tech support and finally they told me I needed a $50 router device because of my dual phone lines. I purchased the router and can now send a fax but have to plug and unplug the unit before and after each fax. I still cannot recieve an incoming fax, even after the additional investment of $50. I should have just paid the extra money and gotten a really good fax to begin with. I am now almost $150 in the hole and the machine is doing only 1/2 the job.
PITIFUL

Summary: WHAT A DUD!
Comment: We bought the HP 1040 Fax two days ago to replace an older fax machine; and specifically to dispatch an urgent fax message.

Following the "Start Here" pamphlet and the "HP 1040/1050 Fax Series User Guide" scrupulously, we installed the new machine and fired off our urgent fax message... That's what we thought!

The message did not go through. To further test the machine, we checked it against several known fax numbers. Our messages did not go through.

Rechecking the setup instructions, individually and together, we tried resending... Failure again... and again, more failure.

We called in two other personnel to independently check our set up and fax dispatch. Failure.

What a dud!

The machine is now comfortably repacked for return... Well, back to the seller it goes!
