wwco's Full Review: Sharp UX B700 Plain Paper Inkjet Fax
This product single-handedly destroyed my faith in Sharp.
Bought new from CostCo for ~$80, managed to get one text alignment page printed. Unplugged the device, when replugged in it just flashes CHECK CARTRIDGE.
It flashes with it it, with it out, when reset, when unplugged and plugged back in, even called Sharp where they had some unplug/wait/Hold-Start-And-Stop-As-You-Replug-In and it still didn't work.
Have spent hours trying to get it out of this error state. Sharp was no help and wanted me to send them the unit. I get to pay shipping both ways and repair costs, which exceed the cost of buy a new fax machine, meanwhile I'm out a fax. I think not!
Totally unsatisfied with the product and the experience, at least there won't be excessive ink cartridge costs.
[Managed to make some headway: unplugged the unit for a week and just let it sit -- seems whatever whatever holds the fax in that useless state can't survive without power. Was still able to send faxes while it sat in "clueless" mode. Still very, very unhappy.]
