Rating: Summary: Cheapest thing in the world Review: I must say I'm not a stickler for print quality and print speed, so I didn't notice that the blacks came out dark brown, or that printing a full-page photograph took more time than it should. What I have noticed is that this printer will never feed more than one sheet of paper without jamming. That is to say, it might get the first page through alright, but when it goes for the second sheet, it feeds the right side of the sheet too quickly, starts printing at an angle, which crumples the paper, and jams the machine. In, fact, I wouldn't even reccommend leaving paper in the tray. Feed it manually, always.
I also have to say that the software (at least that which came with the Brazilian installation package) is irritating to the point of never wanting to print again. "Printing is starting" "Please feed paper" Blablabla, I'm not blind, you don't have to speak to me, just beep and that's enough. I take it back. No stars! This printer is going to printer hell when it dies, along with all its Z25 brethren. Avoid it like the plague.
Rating: Summary: A classic razor and razor blade situation - Don't buy this Review: I was sucked in by the low price of the printer but the ink cartridges will have you paying through the nose (the editorial review already mentioned this). The low productivity per ink cartridge will have you buying cartridges very often, for me it was every three or four months and with the total cost for two cartridges being around $90 without no generic cartridges available the printer was definitely not worth it.
Actually, the cartridges can be refilled but there are other problems with that.
The printing quality is okay but with the market for printers so large there is no reason to settle for this. Now I'm looking for a new printer and I am definitely not buying a Lexmark again.
Rating: Summary: Print Quality Very Poor Review: Prints well for the first couple of runs. Cartridge runs out quickly. Cartridge build is nothing more than a foam sponge inside - very poor design.
You get what you pay for.
Rating: Summary: Good quality for the price Review: This is a good quality printer for a very good price. Printing is not too fast, but I never had a problem. The software is good and runs great with Xp. Ideal for home use.
Rating: Summary: Good quality for the price Review: This is a neat little printer. It is light, so it is easy to move around. It is easy to install, and really easy to operate. The print quality is also excellent for such a small printer. It takes two cartridges, a black one and a multi-colour one.The paper handlers slip neatly into the body of the printer when it is not in use, so it takes up very little desk space. And even when in use it is very neat. The paper holder is vertical, so it takes up no space behind the printer. So only the printed document tray is using up space as you print. The drawback is the speed. It is very slow, especially printing a full colour document. But there has to be some drawback when you purchase anything, and for the price this is an excellent home printer. Because it is easy to use, the kids are less likely to mess with it. If you are running an office, forget it! It is just too slow for business use.
