Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was a bit skeptical of purchasing another Lexmark after such bad luck with the others I have purchased at the company I work for. The sale price was pretty decent & this printer had a lot of functions I needed especially the ability to scan. After deciding to go ahead & pick this one up as well as a few extra ink carts, which were cheaper than the lex16&26's my previous printer used, I brought it back to the office to setup.
It didn't take long to rip into the packaging & get it all hooked up. When I went to install the printer however that was a different problem. The setup was slow & would sit at the same screen for 10 - 20 minutes at a time before finally disappearing & never returning. I'm the computer tech here & all my settings on my profile as well as locally on the machine are set for full access. I tried installing the software/drivers about 3 times before giving up & logging out. I logged into the local administrator account & tried the driver/software install again. Low & behold this time I had similar issues with long pauses between screens, but was greeted eventually with an option to start the driver install.
After finally getting it all setup I was able to finally give this puppy a run for the money. I've printed roughly 250 pages so far on these factory cartridges & am very surprised the ink hasn't run out on them yet. The colors come out very clear especially on pictures & when printing cd labels. On my previous printer (Lexmark z33) pictures would be fuzzy & the ink carts wouldn't last but maybe a week if that.
I haven't scanned anything really yet, but I did try to make a copy of a receipt & it came out looking blank. I'll have to test some other things, but so far as just a printer this machine has exceeded my expectations on the fact the ink consumption has been so slow & how fast my pages come out. Normally the ink they give you with a printer is a half-full cart you have to replace almost instantly.
If you're looking for a printer that doesn't guzzle ink & has a lot of nifty extra features, you might give this printer a shot.
::Update::
I've been using this printer for nearly a year & the scan ability is fairly good. Most copies don't look identicle, they look slightly faded, but usually not too bad. The printing is still great on this printer & color photo prints are incredible. I've had to print about 500 full page photo's so far & it does a wonderful job. Unfortunately alot of ink is used up for pictures printed on photo paper. The paper sensing feature on the printer is a big help so you dont have to change it everytime, just when printing to legal now. This printer has been well worth the money & I definately would buy one for my home.
