Lexmark MX812dtme Printer Review

The Lexmark MX812dtme is a fast and versatile multifunction monochrome laser printer for the busy office environment. It comes in numerous configurations to fit different needs, but this can be a little daunting. With alternate models such as the MX812, MX812de, MX812dte, MX812dxe, MX812dfe, MX812dtfe, MX812dxfe, MX812dme, and MX812dxme, users have their choice of different paper capacities, feature sets, and more, but it can be difficult to choose. Each model uses the same Lexmark MX812dtme toner, however, which helps keep it cost-effective.

Even if buyers choose the base model, they still have the option of adding upgrades at a later time. The paper capacity can be expanded to a total maximum of 2,750 sheets for high-volume offices, and many different finishing options such as stapling and stacking are available as add-ons.

The unit can print at speeds of up to 70 pages per minute, making it one of the fastest in its class. Its first page out time of around 4 seconds is also impressive, and means that users won't be kept waiting when they start a new print task. A maximum monthly duty cycle of up to 300,000 proves that it is ready for even the most heavy-duty work environment.

Lexmark MX812dtme toner cartridges come in three capacities. The standard Lexmark MX812dtme toner cartridges have a yield of up to 6,000 pages and the high-capacity version can provide up to 25,000 pages. The extra high capacity version contains the most Lexmark MX812dtme printer toner, and provides up to 45,000 pages before expiring.

Its upfront price may be a bit steep, and the fact that so many configurations are available makes purchasing it a confusing process. Nevertheless, the MX812dtme is very fast, and its upgrade options add a lot of flexibility. Running costs for this high-volume laser printer are also affordable, thanks to high-capacity replacement toners.
