Features and Functionality
With a high-speed, 33.6K SuperG3 modem, faxing via the Intellifax 4100e is both fast and high-quality. Pages can be sent as quickly as 3 seconds per page, a speed that is facilitated by use of the 30-page auto document feeder that makes sending large files easier. The Brother Intellifax 4100e boasts 8MB of memory, which allows it to store up to 500 pages of incoming and outgoing faxes. This helps multiple users to send faxes in a row without interruptions for busy lines. Multiple users can also benefit from the 250-sheet paper input tray, which can be upgraded to include a second tray for even larger fax demands.
Some of the best features of the 4100e are those that allow users to save time and energy. Not only does the machine have the ability to auto-dial up to 132 numbers, but a single fax can be sent to up to 182 recipients. Additional options include the copy feature, which enables you to make crisp 600 x 600 dpi copies at a rate of 15 page per minute. It can also be connected via both the USB and Parallel ports to a computer to enable the desktop or online faxing feature or even to allow for direct prints.
Whether you're faxing, copying, or printing, all documents are provided in crisp, clear monochrome ink. The Brother Intellifax 4100e toner comes in two sizes: a 3,000-yield cartridge and a 6,000-yield cartridge. Offered in standard Black only, the larger TN460 cartridge provides a more economical investment, while the TN430 remains a good deal for users who might not have the same level of output.
