Sharp UX 300 – A Great Machine

by adam on May 5, 2009

We had heard of the Sharp UX 300 Printer – Sharp UX 300 Toner, and started searching online for information about it. This item is a Sharp UX300 Plain Paper Fax Machine which we heard was reasonably priced and works great.

Some technical details are that it is a plain paper fax, which means that the pages do not curl, or eventually turn yellow and the ink will not fade away. Have you ever had an old grocery receipt that looked almost blank after awhile? That’s what happens with non-plain paper faxes, it’s like invisible ink.

The paper cassette holds up to 60 sheets of paper and the machine has 512 KB of document memory. Which means the fax machine stores approximately 30 pages in memory. There is a 10-sheet auto document feeder which allows up to 10 pages to be sent automatically. And there is a very useful copier function which will allow you to copy up to 99-page multi-copy which will come in handy for me.

We researched a bit and found some reviews and write ups about the Sharp UX 300 Fax machine. Here are some of the things people said with 4-5 star ratings.

This person says it is reliable and versatile and a great value.

I’ve had this Sharp UX-300 for a few years, and it’s always worked perfectly. Before I got a multi tasking computer printer, it was my home copying machine too! If you read the directions and take care of the machine, there should not be any problems. It’s a great Fax machine in this price range.

With four stars this person said, I have never had any problems!

This Sharp UX 300 has worked very well for me over the years. I like this fax machine – not even a paper jam it is very simple to operate.

Five stars for this review: This item works really great if you read the manual

I had some paper jams at first and then I read the manual that came with it. You can not just add the paper. You have to first pull the paper tray open and place the paper, and then close it back up. If you just try to drop in the paper it will definitely jam. There could be better instructions for loading paper. With that one exception it works awesome.

This fax is not super special, but it does the job.

I can not comment on the paper jams, because I haven’t received any faxes yet, but I have sent some things out. It isn’t a fast fax, but it works fine. It is pretty cheap, and if you want a no-frills fax and aren’t in a hurry to send your documents, check this one out. I own a few Sharp electronics and I’m really satisfied with them. I don’t know that I’d want this in an office where I’m constantly sending and receiving faxes, but for occasional home use, it’s fine.

We then did a search on how easy it is to find Sharp UX 300 Toner and we were happy to report there are a lot of sites in competition for business selling the toner. Sharp UX-300 Cartridges give us precise output from our Sharp UX-300 printer, and you can get Sharp compatible toner cartridges as well.

You are also going to require black thermal ribbon look for compatible thermal ribbons with a guarantee to give you the same results as new Sharp Toner cartridge. You use them exactly the same as you would new Sharp thermal ribbons in order to save a little money.
