Digital camera Review: Auto fax receiving wont work
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this printer to use at home. In this setting, people usually have only one phone line. I would expect that it will switch to fax if the the incoming call is a fax and let the answering machine receive it if it is a voice call. I tried many differnt values for DETECT TIME and CHECK TIME for the ANS mode. None of them works. I found from the web that this is a known problem. If you buy this printer expecting to use in this setting, I would strongly suggest you find other printers. I just cannot believe that this printer fails this basic function existing in almost all fax machines.
Comment after one week: I have tried many values for CHECK TIME and DETECT TIME for ANS mode. I found that CHECK TIME=20 secs and DETECT TIME=40 secs work for me. It works for four ring case that answering machine doesn't have messages and two ring case that answering machine has messages. The fax will only pick up after the outgoing message is over. So you will have fax beeps in your answering machine. Canon support gave me 30 secs for both values. But it works for the fax from Canon not for the fax from other places I tried. These two numbers have relationship with the time the phone rings to the time outgoing message is over. For me, it is 23 seconds for the four ring case, I figure that 20 is good compromise between the 2 ring and four ring cases. Good luck.

In this modern world, you usually do not get as much product or service as you pay for. This Canon all-in-one machine AND Amazon's perfect service are an unbeatable pair. The unit came in two days, and it works like a charm. I highly recommend this laser machine to anyone interested in getting a top quality machine at a very small price. They should, however, offer the unit with a full toner cartridge instead of a "starter". It is a total waste of resources.Digital camera Review: Awesome All-In-One!!!!!

Great MF from Canon!! I use it for my business. The scanner is very detailed in color and fast. Copier works like a charm. I love the fact that it's a duplex...saves lots of paper...Go Green! Super printer for the price.Digital camera Review: Awesome value

Great machine. In spite of some other, negative comments on the duplexer, I am having no problems. This has been a really nice surprise ... in fact, even though I bought it mostly for faxing and the occasional duplex job, I am now using it as my everyday printer. There are some issues with this fax machine and Vonage fax lines, though. You will need to adjust the baud rate for it to work properly with a VOIP line.Digital camera Review: BAIT AND SWITCH MF4150 & MAC
Summary: 1 Stars
After several hours of reading, installing, and trial and error, I am unable to connect my MacBook Pro to the Canon MF 4150 via airport. In my opinion, this product should NOT have the MAC compatible symbol on the box if it is not completely compitable. The downloaded drivers give me continuous error messages for both FAX and PRINT. The no recipients message is given every time I try to print. Fax is not even an option at this point. I do not recommend.
I did read the side of the box prior to purchase that the Canon stated that it had limited functionality of only fax and print (this was all I needed). Yet, it still did not work. I'm going back to my Samsung ML2550 printer (worked out of the box) and I'll buy a separate copy machine and fax machine by companies other than Canon.
I will NEVER buy another Canon in my life for any of my businesses.
