PLAIN, NO FRILLS AND LASTED ME FOR YEARS!!!! LUV IT.

I totally agree with the reviewer "K. Chaudhry (USA)". I am just having a problem with it know (Feb 2010) but I think I bought a flawed, remanufactured ink cartridge. I printed so much with this machine over the years (8+), 3-4x per week (documents,...

Simple, Basic Machine--And it Lasted Years!

I was given this printer as a gift (along with a new computer) several years ago when Lexmark first came onto the market. Well, this past week it finally died! After years of printing thousands of address labels, postcards, pictures, greeting cards and...

Nothing good about Lexmark

 

Nothing good about Lexmark

Lexmark spent too much time and money trying to force customers to buy their grossly overpriced ink and forgot to build a good printer. Their own cartridges have to be cleaned weekly or they plug. The paper feed is a piece of junk. The on line...

Another awful printer from Suxmark

 

Another awful printer from Suxmark

I'll keep it short and sweet: you buy cheap, you get cheap. I only purchased the 1100 Jetprinter as my Epson Stylus Color IIs died on me and I needed something immediately to print a report for school. What a waste of hard-earned money: don't even...

Random Acts of Paper Violence

 

Random Acts of Paper Violence

I bought this printer three years ago due to a price-tag glitch that made it unbelievably cheap--one of those cases where the manager said, "Alright - give him one, but fix that sticker IMMEDIATELY". I can't believe anyone paid anything close to retail...

...this was a great printer. I had no problems using it. As time goes on, Lexmark has put out much better printers. Like everyone else, they upgrade the features of newer models. If I were buying my FIRST printer and wanted something simple..this...

Junk quality - Inferior - I give it 0 Stars!!!

I got this printer bundled with the computer I bought. The quality of this printer is remarkably bad. It has a cheap paper feed mechanism that "eats" paper through the top. Paper jams with nearly every print job. A 10 page paper can take as long as 45...

Nice, cheap color solution

 

Nice, cheap color solution

This is a nice printer for the money. (You'll spend more in cartridges in a year than you spend on the printer.) The resolution is solid and worth the wait. It's a perfect, low-cost home solution for your color printing needs.

Don't buy it!

 

Don't buy it!

The paper feed always gets jammed and usually tries to suck several pages through at the same time, or none at all. This is the worst.

Product Specifications

The Lexmark 1100 Color Jetprinter is a high-resolution inkjet printer for home and small office use. It prints in both color and monochrome at a sharp 600 dpi resolution. This single-head thermal inkjet printer puts out 3.5 pages per minute (ppm) for black text and 1.5 ppm for color. This desktop printer is designed for small spaces, as it is only 6.3 inches deep and uses a vertical paper feed. It has a 30-sheet input tray, and accepts manually-fed envelopes, labels, index cards and transparencies. It also prints continuous banners for signs or decorations. The 1100 Color Jetprinter uses one ink cartridge for both color and black printing. Cartridge replacement is a simple snap in/snap out procedure, whether using color, black or waterproof black ink cartridges. Micrografx Windows Draw 6 SE software comes with the printer. It includes simple templates for printing projects plus more than 20, 000 photos and clip art examples. Its Web Publishing Wizard features tools for drawing, editing and publishing for web-based projects. The 1100 Color Jetprinter has a parallel interface and installs quickly with the included print drivers.
