Diehard Lexmark fan [Posted on 2005-04-26] I am a diehard lexmark fan. I will not buy anything else. This is the worst lexmark I have owned. The software will not install on my Windows XP laptop. I finally got it working on my Macs. It scans great! It prints only "ok". The "photo quality" prints are downright horrible. I have 4 Lexmark printers and this is the ONLY negative experience I have had with any of them.
Lexmark SUCKS [Posted on 2007-01-04] I just put my fist through mine. Literally. I just wasted $62 on ink carts with the false hopes it would actually work after not even being used for over a year. Only to find it was tempermental and did'nt want to feed paper at ALL. Sending this to a smelting facility and burning it with the heat of 1000 suns is not enough of a sendoff for this peice of [...]. Die Lexmark, you second rate joke of a company. Next time, let monkeys engineer your next peice of hardware, I just MIGHT be inclined to buy it then.
One of the worst printers ever [Posted on 2007-01-29] I was excited to buy this printer over a year ago, but now I just want to throw it out the window. First off, from the very beginning the software didn't always work right with my Windows XP. Anytime a document had to be cancelled, I had to reboot my computer in order to print anything else because the pending documents list would freeze up. Then there's the usual problem with not getting much usage out of an ink cartridge. But now, the paper feed doesn't work, requiring about ten attempts and usually a manual insertion of paper to get the paper to feed into the printer. The scanning feature works well, but copy quality isn't all that good, and scanning pictures also distorts the image quality quite a bit. All in all, I'm very disappointed in Lexmark and will never buy another.
Not worth the Ink! [Posted on 2007-05-13] I've tried to enjoy this printer, but I've come to realize that it is a real lemon. Don't lose the hardware driver because you'll have to reinstall it at least once every six weeks. The ink consumption is unreal....you may as well buy their stock if your going to by thier ink it may help you feel good about blowing your $$. The printer is louder than my garbage disposal and I have disturbed neighbors trying to use this printer at night. I have attempted to print large documents and left my office only to return to see my Lexmark having a seizure on my desk making sounds that would only be appropriate coming from my Jeep, forcing me to transfer print jobs to my other printers one too many times. I have owned HP's and Canon's and have gotten greater reliability and satisfaction out of their products. The Lexmark has performed miserably for the past 3 years while my older printers have continued to perform well. It's going out in Monday's trash. In fact I intend on giving it a proper sendoff........when the trash truck pulls in front of my house I want to run from my garage with Lexmark in hand go over to the back of the trash truck and slam it down with two hands like SHAQ!
You should know this about the Lexmark X75 [Posted on 2007-12-21] I bought this printer about 2002. It is a good enough printer for me since I am not using it for business. i just learned today though that if you have not been using it for in excess of a month. you want to take a soft cloth and gently clean it inside and out. i could not get my scanner to work. it would give a garbled sound and the mechanism that scans would not move. the status light would not light up and the preview was a black picture with nothing on it. There was nothing about troubleshooting this type of scenario in the manual. The manual is very basic and easy to read, but not much there on fixing stuff that would happen. Like the scanner. On doing research online, one user suggested cleaning it monthly and keeping the ink catridges cleaned. she was right. i did this and today my lexmark is working great.
Do the cleaning before you uninstall anything, cause reinstalling is a real patience tryer.. believe me it did it once when i had to fix my computer and with alot of prayer i managed to get it installed again (OS XP). lexmark doesn't offer any real support on their website. Links loop back and most of them are outdated. I guess that will get you to upgrade.
more $$. Oh well, i hope this review helps someone. i was glad to see the review from that other lady who vows not to buy another anything lexmark!
