Lexmark must be making a huge profit!!!

Advantages: Available at a wide range of outlets
Disadvantages: Relatively expensive

...I have two Lexmark inkjet printers. One (Z605 model) is mine; the other (Z35) is on loan to me in connection with my degree course. Luckily, both printers use the same ink cartridges. These are: Z16/Z17 - black Z26/Z27 - colour The same ink cartridges are compatible with a range of Lexmark inkjet printers, notably: Lexmark Colour Jetprinters - Z13, Z23e, Z25, Z25L, Z33, Z34 Lexmark Colour Jetprinters - Z515, other Z600 series Lexmark All-In-Ones - X72, X74, X75, X1100 series **** So, what about buying the Z16 cartridges? **** They come in a nice, neat little pack. The Z16 code is prominently displayed, as is a full list of the compatible Lexmark printers. So, no need to remember the cartridge code if you have committed your printer model to memory. **** What do they cost? **** An arm and a leg!! No...

Review of Lexmark Cartridge No. 16 - print cartridge (10N0016)

The Cheap and cheerful ish Cartridge!

Advantages: Cheap, colour print is good, easy to insert
Disadvantages: Black comes out green! Runs out quickly VERY Quickly!

...Hello and welcome to this review! My gosh those trial cartridges that come with your printer sure do run out quickly! These cartridges are greatly priced, much cheaper than other brands such as HP! However, there is one problem I have come accross when using the Lexmark 1 Cartridge. That being - When black is printed, it doesn't quite come out black! Its more of a green colour. I understand this is because colours are mixed inside the cartridge to make black but the best colour they can make must be green:( I thought it may have been my printer however I bought a second and its exactly the same! I would definately say for the price of this printer and cartridge range It is good for people doing everyday printing, however if you are printing invoices etc and require that crisp look Im afraid you will not get it...

Advantages: quality, easy to use, exceeds suggested amout to print
Disadvantages: none

...I use lexmark cartridge No 2 for my printer, they are readily available in PC World £14.99 and other shops stock them too Such as Tesco, Argos, etc. They come in a vibrant red box and has a large No 2 inside a rainbow ringed circle, with the Models it is suitable fo ( X2480 & X3480) clearly marked on the front of the box. Lexmark states on the box that they are the Original replacement cartridge with a new intergrated Print head to give you sharp Crystal clear results over time.

Review of Lexmark Cartridge No. 2 - print cartridge (18C0190E)

Lexmark Z 1520

Advantages: cheap, good looks
Disadvantages: a bit big

...Lexmark Z 1520 Lexmark are a company that have been designing and making printers for a while now, so firstly you know that they are great quality. However one bad ting about them is that their ink is quite dear compared with other printer manufacturers. You can however shop around, buy cheaper ink compatibles or even refill your old cartridges if you want to save the odd quid or two. The printer itself looks very cool and futuristic, its cool shiny white body and its black panels go well to give this printer a stylish edge against all its other competitors in the market today. It is however quite long and does appear quite big in the flesh. I cant help thinking they could have saved a lot of space and I feel that they really could have made it smaller and more compact. Also with this one, there’s the opportunity to do...

A Lexmark all rounder

Advantages: Value for money
Disadvantages: None seen yet

...or Laptop with a USB wire - or you could buy a separate wire if you wish to connect to a different kind of port. Lexmark installation disc and software was quite easy to install, steps were quite clear. The machine is compatible with: Windows 98/Me/2000/XP 32-bit and 64-bit: Pentium II (223MHz), 128Mb RAM, 800Mb HD space. The size of the all in one is H- 25.4cm, W- 44.8cm, D- 37.9cm and weight is 7.1kg. It is a nice charcoal and silver colour, fits with most décor. Replacement cartridges could be expensive up to £28. Generic ones cost around £18 when purchased on internet. Cost is around £110- varies in different shops. It is on sale at Argos for £90, with a mini shredder. The shredder works ok as well. My son has used it for shredding his old exercise books and my old credit cards! Still - working. We have used this machine...

Review of Lexmark X7350

No!!... It's No.1

Advantages: can be bought from many shops, can be recycled, easy to use
Disadvantages: its rather expensive

...I have used Lexmark ink cartridge since we got our Lexmark x5200 printer at the beginning of last year which was compatible with the Lexmark cartridge No.33. Lexmark No.33 is a colour ink cartridge which can be used by various Lexmark printers including series X3300, P900, X7100, X5200, P4300 etc. The colour cartridge is made of three colours of course (yellow, cyan and magenta). I've never really had problems with the cartridge at all; it is actually the printer which I had problems with as it died on us, which was rather a shame, Therefore we bought another brand printer, so no need of buying the Lexmark No.33. However the cartridge is very easy to insert. You just open the small red box, and use a scissors to cut the thick silver plastic, were the cartridge is stored. There is a little colourless strip which you got to...

Review of Lexmark Cartridge No. 33 - print cartridge (18CX033E)

NOT EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS BLACK AND WHITE

Advantages: Branded is best, crisp printing with no blockages to the print head
Disadvantages: Expensive, no recycling address provided for empty cartridges

...average for cartridges nowadays. Lexmark state on the packaging that these own brand cartridges are the only ones containing "specially formulated ink approved for Lexmark printers", but to be honest I find it hard to believe that a certain printer needs a specific fusion of ink to make it run at its best. The Lexmark statement further loses standing when I read on the other side of the carton that this cartridge is also compatible with a large selection of Compaq, Samsung and Kodak printers. Nevertheless the final print quality does seem far better than previous unbranded cartridges have delivered so perhaps the folk at Lexmark are talking a bit of sense! As with most computer consumables it pays to shop around for the best price available; after a little searching I found a site that sells these cartridges for £18 - a far cry from...

Review of Lexmark Cartridge No. 70 - print cartridge (12A1970)

Lexmark is very reliable

Advantages: wifi, screen
Disadvantages: 2 separate ink cartridges

...I bought this product around 3 months ago, i have always had lexmark printers, and i really liked the design of this one. It is an all in one, so a printer, scanner and copier, and the price ranges from around £30-50 which i think is reasonably good value for money. It takes two print cartridges, one black on colour, the numbers are 3 and 4 cartridges respectively, which are also fairly cheap. at between £13-18 depending on where you purchase them, I find the fact that it has separate cartridges for black and colour, better than those printers which just have one cartridge for both, as i personally use a lot more black than colour, so i only have to replace whichever one is needed as opposed to the whole cartridge, when there may still be colour ink left in it. It has an extendable tray which you can pull out while it is printing...

Review of Lexmark X3580

Lexmark International X2350

Advantages: Price, Copier
Disadvantages: Paper feed, print quality

...I could not possibly reccommend this unit to anyone. The print quality is awful (uses just the one cartridge - lexmark no1) as the colour black prints out as dark blue - don't even think about trying to print out photographs. As with all lexmark budget printers the paper feed is very frustrating. I find myself putting 1 sheet of paper into feeder at a time as it struggles to handle any more than that. It generally pushes out all the paper if you attempt to load several sheets. Another problem I've had is that it is not compatible with windows vista. You can download the necessary drivers from the lexmark site but this is quite long winded and not guarenteed to work instantly (I had to download the drivers twice). The copying facilty is probably the best feature as you can simply use the printer directly without having to go through...

Lexmark does it again!!!

Advantages: Everything you need in one complete package, excelent quality scans, copy, and prints!
Disadvantages: Abit on the slow side when printing, cartridge status bar can be very unrealible!

...this Lexmark X1180 to anyone wishing to purchase an all in one!!!! The Lexmark X1180 retails for around the £50 mark! Both cartridges retail for around the £15 mark1 Use one of the price comparison tools and I'm sure that you can get it cheaper still....
