The output from this printer is outstanding – and the mono-only speed is great. But you will need to find a closet for it because it is very noisy.
Like another poster, I was a little wierded out by the power drain when this thing fires up. It pushes the limits of your breakers, but I’ve never thrown one yet.
It makes lots of clunks moving the cartridges around too.
But overall, it prints great quality prints and is very reasonably priced.
However, the big downside is that it comes with “starter” toner cartridges and they don’t last terribly long. The replacements are REALLY expensive. It costs very nearly as much to replace the toner as it does to replace the printer.
I bought this printer for a small home business. I get good quality with black type on plain white paper only. I cannot print color flyers or even black type on business gloss without the black toner leaking and streaking up the front and back of the paper. I cannot print on laser photo paper either. The ink cartridges ran out right away. I’m very unhappy with this printer.
If you need to do even low-volume color printing on card stock, don’t buy this printer. It leaves streaks down both sides of the paper and skeletonizes color images. I’ve changed out the color cartridges twice at great expense, because the troubleshooting guide attributes streaking to defective toner cartridges. There was no improvement whatsoever. An expensive disappointment.
I’ve had this printer for a few weeks. It produces great quality prints, especially on nicer (photo) paper. I like the small footprint, design of the printer, speed, and quality. Lexmark has a great environmental policy. You can send empty cartridges to the company for recycling. They also have both normal and high-yield cartridges. For a little extra money, you can get twice the number of prints.
Cons: It does drain the electricity–expect house lights to flicker! It was disturbing at first, but I’m used to it now. The printer is loud when it operates, silent when powered down. The duplex option is expensive, if you need that functionality. You’ll also need to buy another paper feeder for larger paper sizes.
Overall, I’m extremely pleased. I’m on a Macintosh system and had no trouble with drivers or set up. I would research and buy other Lexmark products if they received favorable reviews.
