Does anyone have a Panasonic Multifunction Fax/Printer/Copier (#KX-FM106) and can you please tell me the pages per minute for the printer?

My wife will be working from home and we’re looking into getting one of these things, but I cannot ANYWHERE find how many pages it will kick out in a minute. The Panasonic web site doesn’t even list this on the specs pages, which makes me wonder if it is verrrry sloooooowwwww toooooo prinnnnntttt.

Her company won’t pay for a bigger laser version (8-12 PPM) so we have to buy this ourselves (although they will pay for the print film cartridges).

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help (or to anyone who suggests a better device).

I can’t give you any information on the disposable Panasonic, but [here](http://www.hp.com/all-in-one/) are some real devices.

Thanks for the HP printer-fax link, but I’m not sure I want to spend that much (I can get the XFM106 for about $150).

I’d still like to know how many pages per minute the Panasonic can do. Anyone???
