Advantages: A Fast, efficient printer with high quality print Disadvantages: The machine is quite noisy while warming up
I bought this printer primarily for use in a small office where we produce our own stationery. The first machine that I had delivered was faulty and refused to print on bond paper. However, after two calls to the Lexmark call centre, I had a service engineer turn up on my doorstep and within 3 days, a brand new machine was delivered with no problems since.
It has a very good quality print and doesn't seem to have any problems taking cardstock up to 250g (though I haven't tried anything heavier). It copes extremely well with the demands of our business and is very fast producing both colour and especially black and white pages.
The only downside that I have found with this printer is the noise as it can be very 'clunky' while warming up and for several minutes afterwards. However, this is a small price to pay as the advantages by far ...

Advantages: good cheap printer Disadvantages: colour could be better
Its possible these days to get printers that are really cheap, cheaper infact than the ink that goes in them itself. And this is another one like that.
So here is a fantastic printer, made by Lexmark, who make and specialise in designing and making quality printers. Its does a lot of things and even has some capabilities built it that for a printer coming in at just £35 you totally wouldn’t expect.
The printer is cheaper than some of their usual models, and it perhaps doesn’t look quite as good. There’s no glossy white or black finish like on their more stylish models and it does appear quick big and bulky. I think that they could have probably cut down a bit on the size as some appears just as waste.
The buttons or rather lack of buttons on this printer could be looked at as a bad thing. However when I use ...

Advantages: reasonable price Disadvantages: could be faster
Lexmark make a lot of printers and all in ones these days, this Lexmark X2500 is at the higher end of the range, however it will only cost you a great, £35 from most places.
Getting an all in one works out a lot cheaper than buying things separately, also it looks a lot better than having a load of separate devices everywhere, and of course it also saves a lot of space on your desk.
The best way to describe its shape is to describe it as three separate blocks glues together to give an amazing, almost sculpture like looking all in one printer.
The first section at the top, is home to the scanner, the bottom is home to the paper out section and the block onto the side of the printer is home to all the buttons that are on top of the printer to make them nice and easy to get to. They isn’t a screen on this however, which I think ...
