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 would be very useful, but still for a printer for under £40 what more can you really want.
Having an all in one, doesn’t only work out cheaper, but it also means you have so much more space on your desktop, as you don’t need space for a printer and a scanner, now you’ll just need space for this all in one printer.
It also frees up a few extra USB ports and frees up power sockets, so altogether saving energy and money too.

Its print speed claims to be around 16 pages per minute and when I put this to the test it seemed about accurate and if anything I got more than 16 pages out of it. This isn’t anything special but it’s a good print speed considering the printers only £35. Also the print quality is great too, the black text seems to stand out amongst the page and look very clear and really sharp.
Images printed on here are pretty fine too, and the balance of colours and its sensitivity seems to come off very well.

The scanner is so easy to use too, you have a few different options to have you can scan documents and these can be selected at the top of the printers button panel. You can print to image, print to file and even print to email. There is also the option of being able to print without the use of a computer too. This is great as it means you can take anything, and scan it, in either colour or black and white and this just saves so much time in powering up your computer and also saves time in having to firstly scan something to your computer before you can print the document from there, so altogether this is a fantastic feature to have.

If you want a good looking printer with quite fast speeds and good quality of print and all for a very cheap price then this one is definitely one for you, if you however need a really good print quality for things like photos then I wouldn’t get this and id pay a bit extra for a printer that prints better photos.
