Advantages: Brilliant quality and wide range of card slots.
Disadvantages: Expensive if replacing cartridges each time (DON'T, REFILL INSTEAD!!!!)

The Lexmark P915 is perfect for anyone needing printouts of documents and professional quality photos. The speed of the P915 is quite impressive but not the fastest printer. The quality is superior due to its large consumption of ink per print!! Although the ink is drained out of the cartridge very quickly, they can easily be refilled using a budget refill kit and saves you hundreds of pounds overall. The paper support isnt the best design and sometimes ...
...all if not positioned exactly correct. The wide range of memory card slots of hte P915 allows many cards to be attached but unfortunately for me, my XD card isnt actually recognised by the printer but is by the Olympus camera which came with the bundle (don't know what happened there!!) The ease of use of the P915 is simple; the menu clearly outlines the tools you can use to provide optimum quality such as clean cartridges and test pages. Overall, ... Read review

Advantages: Good quality print and added extra of a card reader
Disadvantages: Ink is very expensive

I purchased this printer about a year ago, from Dixons for a very reasonable price of £59.99 on a special deal when I purchased a new Laptop, It looked a very good deal at the time, there was the addition of the card reader and the performance speed of print. However it was the price that swayed me, but now looking on a year later I think that this was not such a good thing. Overall the printer is excellent good functionality and quite a good DPI ...
...would be the cost of maintence, even though the machine was cheap to buy, the overall running costs of buying new ink is very high with cartridges costing over £25 each, they where only lasting me about 2 months so really not such a great deal. Personally I do not recommend this printer as there are better cheaper ones on the market, maybe look at such manufactures as cannon as these offer great value for money and excellent print quality. ...

Advantages: Card Reader/2 Paper Trays
Disadvantages: Slow Expensive Cartridges

...few straight edges on it, Lexmark choosing to go with rounded lines. The printer comes by it's self with no USB cable although these are relatively cheap and can also be purchased on-line for a few pounds. The main advantages of this printer are the print quality of photo's and the card reader. I've yet to find a friend with a printer that can better the quality of this printer, although it's slow to print are worth the wait. When printing text ...
...b&w prints, however the paper catcher lets it down, especially if like me it's situated on a shelf above the computer. It has 2 paper trays enabling both glossy and normal paper to be held at any one time. Paper tray 1 has a sensor to enable the computer to automatically work out the paper type. Another minor disadvantage I have found is the printer can make quite a lot of noise when printing. The card reader makes life so much easier and accepts ... Read review

Advantages: Compact design, Lightweight
Disadvantages: Expensive to run

...started' etc - disable the sound in the printer drivers please! The print manager can also be customised with 'skins' to suit your taste! The drivers are easy to install. This is a typical Lexmark printer with cartridges that cost the price of the machine. Great little printer for text/graphics. ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap Printer, stylish design
Disadvantages: Prining quite slow

...I have had a Lexmark Printer/Scanner previously and wasn't overly impressed. The printing was slow and quite loud. The cartridges were quite expensive too. However, after purchasing this printer I found a supplier on ebay that sold cheap cartridges (around £13.99 as opposed to £26.99). However, the printing is of a very poor quality and prints much slower than advertised. I thought this may have something to do with memory on my PC. Hpwever, this ...
...Therefore, this should have had no affect on it. I like to make sure that my printing is 'the best', as I often print things out for work. However, when prining 'Best', the ink runs out incredibly fast. Suffice to say, I have had to purchase 2 sets of cartridges (black and colour) since September. I don't print a huge amount of pages so this seems more than a little bit steep to me. If you are printing just black, and you're not rushed then this ... Read review
