Lexmark X466 Toner Cartridges

Lexmark X466 Printer Review

The Lexmark X466 is a laser printer that can only produce black-and-white documents unless it is in scan mode, which allows files to save color scans. This unit can also make copies and send or receive faxes. Though the X466 may cost a little more than the standard office printer, the amount of money and space that will be saved due to the elimination of other pieces of equipment will be worth the upfront price. Overall, the Lexmark X466 will bring reliability and productivity while delivering professional-quality prints, all at an affordable price.

Though the starter printer toner that comes with the unit upon purchase does not have a large page yield, there are three different replacement toners that are readily available from various vendors. The standard toner can only produce 3,500 pages, which will only suffice for small workgroups. However, the high-capacity Lexmark X466 toner cartridge can print as many as 9,000 pages and the extra high-capacity will produce up to 15,000 pages, providing a low cost per page.

A step up from similar models that came earlier in this line of Lexmark laser printers, the X466 has more expandable features, making it the right choice for companies that are growing. The built-in memory is 256 MB that can be upgraded to 640 MB. The standard paper capacity is 350 sheets but can be increased all the way up to 850 sheets with additional trays.

The Lexmark X466 toner can produce a resolution of 1200x2400 dpi and still print up to 40 pages per minute. Copies can print just as quickly and faxes will send or receive in as little as 3 seconds with a transmission model of 33.6 Kbps. The scanner is a flatbed surface so thick documents, such as text books, can be scanned or copied. The large yielding Lexmark X466 toner cartridge makes this printer a true value over its life.
