We are happy with the product itself just very disappointed that we were not told that the product was obsolete, we were not told that it only had a sample size ink cartridge in it, you do not sell ink for it, and we are having a difficult time finding ink. You gave us a $15 credit back, but this does not resolve our ink problem.

Simple and fast fax Machine

This Panasonic fax machine is a good update to the previous models. If you are familiar with past models then there is no learning curve with this one. Its smaller than previous models with improved paper loading on the top(finally no paper jamming!). Easy button controls are very nice with an easy to read monochrome LCD display (a back-light on the display would have been nice though). For a standard black and white fax machine the print quality is very good. It uses a type of ink scroll that is installed in the middle of the machine. No liquids or streaking to worry about. It has a 28 page memory in case of an error receiving a fax (about half a megabyte of memory). Which is a lower amount than some fax machines but shouldn't be a big deal to the average home user. Lastly, it also has a copying feature that allows you to use it a xerox machine. All in all this is a great fax machine for everyday home use

Bought it to replace it's previous version. Paper jam problem was lifted and the other features like it's compact designs were intact. Good quality for it's price. But not meant to be for a rush faxing, it will take a while for each page to be scanned to fax.

Questiondo i have to have a landline phone service to have a fax machine
Asked 13 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hi, Yes, you would still need to have a phone line to get it working. Not unless you just plan to use it as a copier which the machine can do without a phoneline. Hope this helps,

QuestionFax Compatibility Problem with Telephone Answering Machine SystemI've heard that some fax machines demonstrate an incompatibility with house telephones that have a built-in answering machine system. Can you confirm if the Panasonic KX-FP205 has this problem? Thanks,
Asked 12 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The KX-FP205 is compatible with an answering machine. Just connect an external telephone answering machine and set the ring count of the answering machine to less than 4 rings and set the ring count in FAX ONLY mode of the fax machine to “5 EXT.TAM”. Doing this procedure will allow the answering machine to still record messages and the fax to receive documents without a problem.
