Lexmark S402 Printer Review

A true all-in-one printer means a single machine can print, scan, copy and fax. These types of devices use either laser or inkjet technology and save space, time and money. The Lexmark Interpret S402 is an inkjet printer, meaning it is a better option for users looking for a personal printer. As many as 20-25 pages per minute can be produced in either black-and-white or color, which will certainly be a sufficient speed for occasional home use.

The copying function has a resizing option and can print nearly 100 duplicates per an original. The scanner is a flatbed surface that will generate an accurate internal resolution. Scans can be saved to a file or sent to an email. The fax machine has a standard modem speed and some speed dials options. Faxes can be generated in a matter of seconds.

Four Lexmark S402 ink cartridges are required for operation, and a starter set is provided in the box upon purchase. The standard Interpret S402 ink cartridges have a maximum capacity of 600 pages. There is a control panel on the top of the machine that will automatically monitor and notify users of the levels of Lexmark S402 ink. When replacements are needed, there are multiple options online. Compatible Interpret S402 ink is available from third party vendors and will be a more affordable option than the OEM versions.

There is a single input tray that can hold up to 100 sheets of standard paper and the output tray holds only about 50 sheets. Alternative media types are also supported, such as envelopes and transparencies. Regardless of the paper type, a maximum resolution of 2400x1200 dpi can be reached using only black printer ink while the color Lexmark S402 ink can produce a precise, professional-quality resolution of 4800x1200 dpi.
