can I use my present fax/copy machine with cables

Yes you can! If you ever want to upgrade to a wireless printer, WI-fi is very easy to set up with this computer and a router. Also, this is an awesome computer!!!

I don't see why not. When you connect them to the PC, the computer should automatically search for drivers and software for this printer/fax/copy machine. This is a Windows 7 machine, remember. That's the main reason I bought it, since Windows 8 had been out about a year, and I was unable to find a Win 7 machine in any of the stores (I did not want Windows 8). I believe you will be very happy with this computer! I know I am.

Depends on what type of connection you fax/copy machine has. USB=Yes, Wireless=No, unless you add a card.

I'd say yes, but it might depend on the age of your machine. I have a brother lc75 series & it hooked up easily w/cables.

I am able to. I unplug the phone cord from my regular phone and plug it into the fax machine when I want to send a fax. When I'm done, I simply switch the cord back to my phone. I have a HP 1040 Fax machine. I could leave the cord plugged into my fax machine as it has a handset on it, but I prefer to use my regular cordless phone.

That is a legal question. Physically, the machine is capable of copying them.

No. Echoing what the previous reviewer stated, this was something I used to connect my printer to a computer. My guess is that you are looking for an Ethernet cable to connect the computers, especially if you had just purchased a new Apple and were transferring your old data to the new computer, but I would verify this information with Apple first.

Old thread, but found this suggestion. It requires you have a *long* telephone line: "try plugging that line cord into the "Telephone" jack on the old machine. That is, there will be a single line cord from the wall jack to the "Line" jack on the old (receiving) fax machine, and a long line cord from the "Telephone" jack of the old machine to the "Line" jack of the new machine."

Fax works fine, it will give you the option to print or not. also works with distinctive ring tone if you have the machine connected to one phone line. Wi-fi work great as well. Excellent value for the price.

Yes. The computer has plenty of USB ports, which is how I connect my printer.

The modem connects to a computer. So if the Lexmark can scan, not fax, but do scans like pdf of jpg, then you can take the Lexmark output to the computer somehow, by memory stick-thumb drive or by USB cable, and then use the computer to send the fax via the modem. However the modem software may not be current for Win 7. So check the USR website to see if they have current fax-Modem software for Win 7.

I hooked mine up for that purpose, but haven't been able to figure out the fax function on my new printer. So I am not much help.

If you have a cord that has a USB type port coming from your PC then I believe you should be able to. One did not come with the printer. You can also throw them on a jump drive.

I do not believe it is capable of that; but if you split the phone line with a two-way splitter BEFORE this and run one split to this dongle and the other split to your FAX then it should work fine. http://www.amazon.com/26191-Duplex-Adapter-White-4-Conductor/dp/B0000AHO92/

Hi King'sDaughter,Yes, indeed. Just plug into your USB port.You also have to install the software that comes with it.I receive faxes this way; it is always on.You can also send faxes.Phil

Yes, the only other thing you will need are 3 printer cables 1 from box to printer and 1 for each computer to switch box. Item worked VERY well for me in both locations I set it up at.

You can buy a module that is a print interface that allows printing though an ethernet connection

Haven't tried it as I no longer use my Mac for faxes. If you would like one I'd be happy to let you have mine for free if you pay for shipping.
