The Value of High Expectations

Zip through print jobs before other printers even wake up, thanks to instant warm-up technology and print speeds up to 30 ppm.

At Home on Network and Desktop

Surprisingly affordable for a duplex printer, it’s compact and ultra-quiet too. Built-in Ethernet connectivity allows multiple users to share one printer.

Expand the Capacity

Opt for a second drawer to boost your total input capacity to 800 sheets or run a second type of media without having to reload.

Save Time, Money, and Precious Resources

Built-in duplex printing is standard—by printing on both sides of the page, you can drive costs down and reduce paper consumption. With up to 30 ppm print speed and time to first page as fast as 7.5 seconds, you'll also save precious minutes.

Duty Cycle Notes
"Recommended Monthly Page Volume" is a range of pages that helps customers evaluate Lexmark’s product offerings based on the average number of pages customers plan to print on the device each month. Lexmark recommends that the number of pages per month be within the stated range for optimum device performance, based on factors including: supplies replacement intervals, paper loading intervals, speed, and typical customer usage.
"Maximum Monthly Duty Cycle" is defined as the maximum number of pages a device could deliver in a month using a multishift operation. This metric provides a comparison of robustness in relation to other Lexmark printers and MFPs.
