Lexmark C782 Toner Cartridges

Lexmark C782 Printer Review

When a growing office is in need of a new printer that can keep up with increasing workloads, a laser printer is a good start to narrowing down the choices. The next step in the decision making process is to determine what maximum monthly duty cycle will suffice for the daily office tasks. Depending on the features and functions that are needed in this single machine, all-in-one devices may be the best choice. If the field is narrowed down to a unit with a 150,000 monthly duty cycle and serves only as a printer, the Lexmark C782 is a viable option.

Cyan, magenta, yellow and black Lexmark C782 toner cartridges are all included upon purchase and needed for operation. Each of these standard-capacity toners can last for 6,000 prints before users will need to find replacements. High-capacity Lexmark C782 toner cartridges are available from multiple vendors. This higher yielding printer toner will reduce the cost per page, making the C782 a more budget-friendly unit.

When printing in black-and-white, speeds of 40 pages per minute can be produced. Using the color Lexmark C782 toner, about 35 pages per minute can be printed. The efficiency of this unit is undeniable, but it's the expandable features that make it ideal for businesses. The built-in memory is 256 MB and that can be upgraded to 768 MB. The standard paper capacity is 1,100 sheets with two 500-sheet input trays and a 100-sheet multimedia tray; however this can be increased up to 3,100 sheets with the addition of more trays.

The USB port allows single-PC connection while the ethernet interface provides networking so the C782 can be shared. The Lexmark C782 toner can deliver a maximum resolution of 4800 dpi in color and 1200 dpi in black-and-white. Overall, this laser printer will fit into a budget comfortably and complete mid-volume daily tasks.
