5 out of 5 stars Lexmark X4550 All in one Inkjet Printer   October 11, 2008
M. E. Wolfe (Pittsburgh,Pa USA)
I am very satisfied with my Lexmark All in One Printer. I purchased the printer because it does everything I wanted a printer to do, and because it has a name that I have confidence in. We used Lexmark printers at work, had 10-20 people using them all day, and had practically no problems. If a problem did occur it was very minor or human error. That is the reason I chose Lexmark for you home printer. I am glad I did.


5 out of 5 stars Great printer, great price.   October 7, 2008
B. Gergely
-Pros-
The wireless printing works perfectly and it seems to print pretty fast. I don't print all that much, the occasional essay for school or some web pages. I have had this printer for almost a year and never replaced the ink, cartridge prices are reasonable even when buying direct from lexmark.

-Cons-
There are two things that i don't like about it though. One, you have to physically connect the printer to the computer to set it up the first time. Two, to scan you have to go over and click the scan button, you cannot initiate the scan from a piece of software, this really isn't a big deal though because you have to put the page into the scanner anyway.

For a college student or someone with only light printing duties, this is an excellent printer.



2 out of 5 stars Not compatible with Mac -- Apple software conflicts   October 7, 2008
Steelaway (Washington, DC USA)
This printer is advertised as Mac-compatible, but it is not. Apple software (including Safari and Viewer) crashes instantly when I attempt to print from that software. The software "closes unexpectedly," and the document does not print. This does not happen with Microsoft Office software on a Mac. It also does not happen on a Windows PC running XP.

I conclude that the printer simply can't be used with Apple software, which makes it useless for Mac users.

Update: I replaced this printer with an HP OfficeJet wireless all-in-one. The HP works flawlessly with the Mac, and connects to my wireless network with a single click. I recommend choosing HP over Lexmark.



1 out of 5 stars cheap, but expensive   September 26, 2008

The printer is cheap, but the ink is not!!! Because of the memory in this printer, you cannot refill cartridges (either by the professionals or yourself). The printer can recognize when a cartridge is empty and will not allow you to use it again-ever!!! The print quality is good, but I'm not writing a novel and only use it for kids stuff and printing info online. I will be shopping for a new printer that will allow me to refill the ink.


1 out of 5 stars Lexmark printers aren't economic   September 17, 2008

If you want to waste money buying ink cartridges every week, then go ahead and buy a Lexmark... !!! I have an all-in-one Lexmark that decided to stop reading the ink cartridges!! The ink cost 25 dollars for each cartridge, which doesn't last very long at all! This printer is a real money hog if you plan to actually use it to print. I warn you to get a printer that doesn't sell its ink all in one cartridge.. Better to have two cartridges... one color and one black. I would never take a Lexmark again even if it is for free!!!
