1. What the blurb does not say is whether the new printer has fax capabilities over and above what it does say about this new multifunction printer.

2. Apologies to the readers, I missed the part about fax machine. It's there alright. It happens with speed reading and I was concentrating more on CD/DVD printing than fax at the time.
