All in one printers are defiantly the future in printing. Basically for all those who don't know, an all in one printer is one which not only prints, but scans too, and some even have other capabilities too. 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.
Lexmark make a lot of printers and all in ones these days, this Lexmark X4550 is at the higher end of the range, however it will only cost you a great, £65 from most places.
The design of this model is very stylish indeed. It is like a very cool rounded slab design and is three main colours. White, aluminium and light grey. The top white part of the printer is home to the scanner, this is very easy to use and you can either scan to computer image, scan to email or you can even copy without the use of the computer, this is great if you want to save a bit of time scanning something and you don't want to wait for the computer to load up. Scanning is really fast too, id say it takes just about 20 seconds to scan to image or email, and it takes about 1 minute to scan a photo and print it off using the scanner without a computer.
Underneath the top section is a very simple function panel, this also has a lcd panel, which has a backlight too, this is good however I would have liked to see Lexmark add a colour screen panel onto here so that you could view photos and other things before you print them off.
Why I say this colour screen would be nice to see photos is because to the right hand side of this are 2 memory card slots, also there is a usb port for plugging your digital camera straight into the printer and printing your photos off, so it is a real shame that there's not a colour screen to use this option in its full capability. However using the buttons and the lcd screen it is still easy to select what pictures you want to print off, then select the print options and print your pictures easily.
A pull out paper tray at the bottom is easy to pull out and put away and this is where your documents end up when there finished printing, one bad thing about this is that its not really big enough and sometimes the paper just falls off the end of the printer and onto the floor.
At the back of the printer is the paper feeder, this is basically where you put your paper and it feeds it into the machine to be printed onto.
Also at the back is where the power cable comes out of, this just plugs straight into a socket. Also at the back then, is the usb port, you plug a usb cable into this and then the other end into your pc, this is then really easy to set up and you do even get software, however you don't necessarily have to use it to get your printer working.
There is also a wireless connection you could use to print things off with this printer. This is really tricky to set up, so its best to read the instruction manual first. But basically you need to run a separate wireless installation routine first, whilst the printer is still plugged into the computer via usb before you can unplug it and eventually go wireless. This is great when you get it working, as it means that everyone in your wireless network can use this printer. You could have the printer somewhere, anywhere in the house, and be able to print off from a computer or a laptop anywhere in the house.
This printer really does print off documents really clearly and even text looks really smooth as on some printers it just looks a bit blurry. Also photos on this are good too, there are better printers for photos however this Is a good all round printer and for just £65 then you cant go wrong with a Lexmark X4550.
Advantages: Simple, Wireless, Quick Disadvantages: Scanning can fail
I have owned the Lexmark X4550 inkjet printer all in one for about a year, and I have to say it is the best printer I have ever owned. The wireless is easy to set up, and the speed at which it prints is superb.
There is one flaw when scanning, and that is that it cannot always download the application list, which is easy to fix with 2 patches from lexmarks website. The memory card ports make transferring photos or files to your computer easy, and ...

Advantages: Good quality for the money Disadvantages: Not as good as the packaging says
...peronally I have always found Lexmark printers a nightmare to work with. The trouble started when I first got the thing and the CD supplied wouldn't install the software properly, and sent me repeated error messages containing mindless number sequences I didn't understand. It insists on installing fax software which I find nobody really uses anymore, and its otherwise good value for money I feel is compromised by it's ink prices, but I suppose this ... ...quality is very good, along with good speed and feature rich printout customisation, (different photo modes etc.), although color sensitivity is poor in my opinion, but it depends on your perfectionism when it comes to digital printouts. Scanner software is slow and confusing. All in all, I wouldn't really recommend this, though it is a good printer if needs must, and will get the job done more than satisfactorily, so long as you don't mind a few ...
