The Brother FAX-3800 is a high-performance fax machine, known for its robust functionality.

With a 20-sheet ADF and a memory capacity of up to 250 pages, it handles regular faxing tasks efficiently, making it suitable for smaller businesses.

Both models support a variety of transmission features, such as broadcasting to multiple recipients, which is especially helpful for sending the same document to various clients or partners.
