Lexmark MX510de Toner Cartridges

Lexmark MX510de Printer Review

The Lexmark MX510DE is a multifunction laser printer that scan and copy, though it lacks faxing capabilities. With support for network scanning, it could potentially replace faxing workflows, and it can print at up to 45 pages per minute. Those on a tight budget will appreciate the economical Lexmark MX510DE printer toner prices as well.

While it is technically the only model in the MX510 series, it is closely related to the MX511 series, which adds features like faxing, extra paper capacity, and an internal hard drive. Many of these features can be added as optional upgrades, however. For example, users can upgrade the MX510DE to support a maximum input paper capacity of 2,000 pages.

The 4.3-inch touchscreen is one of the unit's biggest highlights. It features large icons and gestures such as swiping that make it easy to navigate, and pre-loaded workflows can help users handle many common tasks, or they can save their own for quick access. Mobile printing is possible thanks to specialized apps that can be loaded on individual devices. Security features can lock out unauthorized users and track usage throughout the office, and modes like Quiet and Eco can cause the machine to operate quietly or conserve Lexmark MX510DE toner.

Speaking of toners, the unit's flexibility continues to the Lexmark MX510DE toner cartridges, which are available in multiple capacities from 2,500 pages to 20,000 pages each, allowing users to prioritize cost-effectiveness or the lowest price. Since the Lexmark MX510DE toner cartridges are cross-compatible with other models, it keeps prices lower for each machine as well.

While it may not have as many features as the upgraded models in the MX511 series, the Lexmark MX510DE is available at a much lower price tag. Best of all, it makes a great basic machine to build upon, adding upgrades as the office's needs increase.
