Choosing a Lexmark printer
Choosing a printer is hard work—especially when there are so many options out there to choose from. If you are looking for a Lexmark printer specifically, try going to the Lexmark printer finder. This tool will let you select all the things you are looking for in a printer and then it does the work for you by picking out which printers fit your needs exactly.
First, you will need to pick the environment in which you are working in. Your three options are home office, small business and departmental. Small offices generally range from 5 to 30 users, while a departmental situation would be for 30 users or more.
Next, you need to choose whether you want a black-and-white machine or a color unit. Base this by determining what exactly you think you will be printing. If printing black-and-white text, you probably just need a monochrome machine. If you foresee yourself printing a lot of color documents, then you probably want to go with the color machine.
The tool will next ask you what type of connection you are looking for—wireless, wired or USB. The wireless options are by far the most convenient, but ethernet may operate the most effectively. USB connection is pretty standard and will work best with a number of different products.
You will also need to choose between the features you’d like additionally. The ones listed include scan/copy, fax, automatic document feeder, duplex printing and touch-screen options. Here you can easily check mark the features you need or would like to have.
The last option you get to choose is price. Here you choose what you are willing to spend—under $299, $300-599 and $600 and over.
After that, all the models that fit with your specifications are chosen. For instance, if you choose a home office machine that prints in color, offers all three connection types, has an automatic document feeder, duplex printing and a touch-screen, while still costing under $300, you will be shown the Lexmark Pinnacle Pro901. With this tool, choosing your printer is easy!
