Ok we bought our computer in 2000 and it was a package deal with printer, scanner etc and the printer was a Lexmark it was a fantastic printer. Then last year it started playing up and not printing correctly but as we never used the printer all that much at that time we really never bothered and it done the trick for my son printing out some of his pictures.

One day we were in ASDA and we noticed they had the Lexmark Z23e on sale at £29.99, I had to look twice, as I didn't realise this item could be so cheap I think it was mainly to do with the printer we had was part of a package so I never really gave its price a second thought.

The good thing about it is that it doesn't take up much space at all, it is 5.1" high, 8.1" deep and 17.5" wide, although you have to make sure there is plenty of room for the paper to come out at other if not your printed page will crumple up.

Now this printer connects to your PC by USB cable and the software that comes with the printer was so easy to load up, one tip remove the software from your old printer first as the mistake I made was to connect the printer first before installing the software and the computer kept telling me there was no printer available. Anyway after getting over that hurdle it was plain sailing from then on in.

I cant begin to tell you how pleased I am with this printer, it is a smart printer to look at and is not too bulky and it is not as noisy as my previous printer. It is not a quick printer thought as it only prints 9 ppm in black and white or 5 ppm in colour.

Like my previous Lexmark printer it can take two cartridges one colour and one black and white but if you don't want to have two then it will still work with just one. The printer came with a colour cartridge which I must warn you are more expensive than the printers which makes me wonder why as it is far much cheaper to keep buying a new printer each time you run out of ink, I was fortunate enough to have some cartridges left over from my previous Lexmark printer which fit this one but when they are finished I am certainly not going to spend more than the printer is worth for new cartridges even thought I like the printer very much, My only regret is not buying a couple of the printers at the time but who knows they may still be around. There is also an ink level indicator that comes on screen when you are printing to let you know how much ink you have left.

The paper carrier hold 100 sheet of A4 paper and can also take card but since I have never printed anything other than A4 I cant tell you much about printing card, envelopes etc.

The print quality is fantastic, we printed a couple of photos and they were as clear as day.

The solution centre will help you with lots of things, for instance how to print a photo etc.

All I can say is yes the printer is cheap but you get what you pay for and in this case I think there is great value for money, after all we don't use the printer that often and why pay a fortune for something that you hardly use when this fits our needs and is there when we need it.
