Oh, how I wish I could give this terrible product 0 stars! One star is one too many!

I didn''t expect great prints from a printer with this low of a cost but the initial print quality was only barely acceptable. After just 3 prints, the grays in my pictures started printing as light blue. After 6 prints, the black started printing in streaks and the pink stopped working. Cleaning the cartridges'' print heads fixed the problem for the pink but not the black. If I print out a letter, it is so streaked that it is unreadable. If I print a picture, it is washed-out, blurry AND streaked. After going through all the offical help steps, the official recomemdation is to replace the black cartridge after less than 10 prints! At this rate, it will cost me $3 per page to use this printer!

I needed something that would print at least decent quality pictures and text this was not it!

Be warned YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Spend little get VERY little in return! If you want a decent ink jet printer stick with HP, or possibly Epson or Canon. Do NOT waste your money on a Lexmark product.

WHERE DO I BEGIN?? The ink catridges dried up after a few weeks of not using it and now it also says the device is not recognized by windows, so it is now offically inoperative. From a scale of 1-10 (10 being an expert) I am like 9.5 when it comes to computers. So I''ve done everything possible to reinstall this printer and fix its issues to make it functional again and have made no progress. Windows recognizes the device being connected but is useless because it doesn''t have a driver; when I try to install the driver, the setup program says the device is not connected. What is its recommendations?? (This is the best part) Check to make sure the cable is plugged in and the power light is on. TERRIBLE!!!!!!! I contacted their Tech. support and their response had nothing to do with my problem I inquired about. PATHETIC!! I''m also considering developing a website just to demote anything with the name LEXMARK on it. I hope this review saves a lot of people...

As a multi-page scanner, it works pretty well. It often makes 1 out of 30 pages crooked, but otherwise is really speedy and the software interface is pretty good. It whines if you don''t install printer cartridges, but will still function w/o them installed if you ignore the nags, unlike some other brands that will stop dead in their tracks. Haven''t had a good record w/their flatbed scanners, but this seemed better constructed.

I OWNED A X4270 AND AFTER A MONTH OF USE STARTED GIVING ME PROBLEMS

IT''S NOT WORTH A PENNY.

Given the relatively low price of this machine, you need to temper your expectations for this. As a previous Lexmark owner, I wanted to get another Lexmark that used the same size 70/71 cartridges because I found this size to be readily available at places like Costco, Walmart, and Target.

This machine does an adequate job for light usage. Since I only use this for copying, printing, and faxing documents, I changed the print settings to black & white only. I find that this increases print speed and reduces overall printing costs. It clearly is not the best all-in-one out there, but, for the price, it does a satisfactory job.
