Lexmark X9575 Professional

The X9575 sits at the top of Lexmark's business-focused Professional series of inkjet multifunctions. The unit has a range of connection options and a number of PC-less features that make it a suitable addition to the home or small office. However, its printing speeds and photo quality may deter some.

Lexmark X4850

Designed for the home user, the Lexmark X4850 is a photo printer, copier and scanner all-in-one with a subtle enhancement -- it has wireless capabilities.

Lexmark X6570

The multifunctional Lexmark X6570 is aimed at home and small offices, with impressive fax features at its heart.

Lexmark X5470

Lexmark's budget multi-function device includes a fax and an automatic document feeder.

Lexmark C500n

The Lexmark C500n is the new baby in the company's family of networked color lasers. It's similar to the Lexmark C510n, C522n, and C524n models we've reviewed in the past, but it achieves a lower price of just $579.90 by using a Windows GDI-based driver that renders pages on your PC. This lets Lexmark economise with a less powerful processor, less memory, and no licensing fees for PCL and PostScript. However, it still has a two-line LCD as part of its well-designed control panel, which competitors don't yet offer at this price. Lexmark also supplies drivers for the Mac, and the printer works with Lexmark's free MarkVision Professional, a good tool for managing a network of printers.

Lexmark X4550

Lexmark reckons wireless connections are set to saturate homes and offices across the nation. To this end, many of the models in its new range eagerly embrace Wi-Fi. This isn't the cheapest device to offer Wi-Fi, but it costs $199 and this, in light of its all-in-one capabilities, ought to draw murmurs of approval.

Lexmark C534dn

Lexmark's C534dn is a colour laser printer that can be connected either directly to a computer using USB or to a network using its built-in 10/100 Ethernet controller. It's aimed directly at the business market and has many nifty print and management features that can come in handy, particularly in offices where a lot of colour printing is required.

Lexmark X9350

The best part about Lexmark's flagship multifunction device is that it can be used wirelessly. It comes with a built in 802.11g adapter, which can run in ad-hoc mode or in infrastructure mode and is fairly easy to set up. When it runs in ad-hoc mode, uses can connect to the printer directly using a notebook with a built in wireless network adapter. In this mode, rather than having to connect through a router, you can wirelessly print to the X9350 without even having a wireless network set up.

Lexmark X2470

We've become used to printers replacing the universal colour cartridge with individual tanks, allowing you to replace one tank rather than having to junk the entire cartridge.

Lexmark P4350

The Lexmark P4350 is one of the new additions to the company's range of multifunction printers and is definately an improvement on previous efforts. This offering still isn't without its flaws and ommissions however; namely the lack of fax and an automatic document feeder and uneven print and scan quality.
