Good but not greatJul 14, 2009
By G. Rapkin
"Software Guy"
After a reload of the OS, my old HP laser was no longer compatible with my Mac computer, so I went looking for a color laser that did duplex printing (trying to be a bit green). My use is at home for personal as well as some business printing.
The set up was easy and the instructions clear. Printing in B&W single sided is fast and of high quality. I find the color printing to be a bit muted and not photo-like, but still acceptable. The biggest negative is the duplex printing. It works, but... When I select two-sided printing, it takes forever to print. It is so slow that I have given up using it completely. As I was hurrying out of the house on a road trip, I tried to print a Google map in duplex, and it took so long I simply left the house without the map. I don't know what is going on inside, but this is so bad I'm shocked it ever was released.
Once I ignore duplex printing, and treat it like a nice feature I will rarely if ever use, then I am generally satisfied with the printer and recommend it for the price.

 Excellent Except for Envelope PrintingMay 20, 2011
By Kerri A. Kadow
"Kerri"
I've had this printer for over a year in my workplace, and it has been excellent for everything except printing envelopes. This is our networked printer, so our 5-person office all use it. We do a lot of printing and a lot of it is graphical and colorful.
When it comes to printing a single envelope, it jams the printer. We get around that by printing labels instead or using a different network printer to do envelopes. It was out of warranty when I discovered the issue; I wonder if it was a manufacturer's defect in our machine (and may not be a problem in most machines.)
Print speed is very fast (it just takes about 15 seconds to warm up before first page out, then easily prints text only at 30 pages per minute (ppm)). It takes a long time to print graphics-heavy PowerPoint presentations, but if you're printing multiple copies of a presentation, the first print is very slow and subsequent copies are quicker. Color graphics are excellent and crisp, and so is black text.
I would recommend this printer as long as you don't need to print envelopes.

Great quality color printing for the priceSep 12, 2009
By B. Thomas
"Just a Granny"
I was very impressed with the speed and quality of the color printing when using the standard page sizes. However, when I added the 650 page add on tray in order to get the statement sized paper feeder, (5.5" X 8.5"), the printing slows down to about 8 - 10 ppm. I have been in contact with Lexmark regarding this issue, nothing that I have tried has helped the speed, and I have the feeling that this is simply the best it will do. I still think it is the best printer for the money, but if a business expected to use the statement feeder for volumes of printing, they would be quite disappointed.

Black + White Printing issuesAug 12, 2009
By Richard R. Glanzer
"lottagames"
I just spent two hours with Lexmark tech support regarding printing in Black and White using the Mac OX Driver. They have told me in no uncertain terms, that you can only do this with a Windows driver. SO the cost of my consumables just went way up.
Unlike the previous reviewer, duplex printing is insanely fast. He might want to try printing at 1200 DPI instead.
If someone figures how to print in black and white, post a review and i'll send you my email address. thanks in advance. richard

Good value for an economy color laserSep 11, 2011
By RM
I replaced an aging tank-like Konica-Minolta color laser which never worked right and cost a fortune to maintain. This printer has worked fine with Mac OSX in a wireless Airport Express environment for two years. It did have a failed power supply for the fuser which gave error messages. It was fixed in home for free. I have been pleased with the cost of replacement cartridges. They seem to last longer than my former color laser and cost less than half to replace. You are replacing toner only, not an entire roller assembly. The toner is available everywhere. It is not fast at start-up nor when printing Adobe PDF's. I upgraded memory and added a second paper drawer. For some reason when the paper runs out on the top drawer, it does not automatically shift to the next drawer as other printers do. Maybe this is a software issue that I have not found.
Pros: Less expensive toner replacement than others; Has worked with Mac OSX; Has a single feed slot; compact.
Cons: Slow start-up time. Duplexing feature is external-you need to remove each page as it is processed so that the multiple pages do not get drawn back into the unit and jam. If you do a lot of duplexing, look elsewhere; does not automatically switch paper drawers when empty.
