The Brother FAX-1840C

Quality colour fax with integrated telephone handset to
improve all-round office efficiency.

All the convenience of colour copying

With the FAX-1840C there is no need to invest

in a separate copier. 2 in 1 and 4 in 1 mono

copying, as well as reduction and enlargement

features mean documents can be manipulated

to your exact requirements.

Integrated telephone handset

Designed to complement the style of the fax

machine, this handset fits snugly into the

overall package, allowing the user to make and

receive calls without having to invest in a

dedicated handset.

Software to increase performance

At Brother we are always looking to increase

the performance of our products. To extend

the capabilities of your Brother fax machine

you can download the Brother PC-FAX software

and Printer Drivers enabling you to send mono

PC faxes and print documents straight from

your computer.

For further information on compatibility see the

Systems Requirements table on the reverse of

this leaflet.

Individual ink cartridges

All Brother colour multi-function products come

complete with individual colour ink cartridges.

Unlike some colour multi-function products,

when a single colour runs out you only replace

that colour.

Capillary ink system

Brother’s capillary tube delivery system provides

ink from the FAX-1840C’s four separate

cartridges direct to the print head. The result is

smoother, quieter operation and ink cartridges

that are quicker and easier to replace.
