Worthless piece of junk ScanError0X00000015

 

Lexmark stops scanning within 2 weeks. Lexmark tech support is near impossible to get and when they do, you immediately pick up that they dread the call if its a X264dn. They worked for over an hour, had to call me back several times, finally got it working at 1/2 speed with a universal x driver. That lasted about 3 days. Now it won't scan again. I hvae this 0X00000015 scan error and there is no cure, there is no customer service because this is a poorly designed and defective piece of junk

X264DN is

 

X264DN is Piece of Junk When my old Dell Multi printer out life (5years) my wife brought me Lexmark X264DN, said she reviewed many “expertise” review, this is best multi function machine in the market place for home office. Let me tell you my experience, if you using it as printer, I would say it is fine, but “multi function? Forget it!, the scanner is so complicated, took me three days to figure out how to scan and save file (there is no on-line support!) fax function is nightmare, often you can hear ring after ring, there is no fax come out due to “energy saving”, and even after your reduce dial tone to 3, it still won’t function. I received tones, tones of complaints about why they can not send us fax from customers. And, you never know how many fax you missed because there is no tracking on machine - if you are looking for nightmare, go ahead to take this machine home, otherwise, throw it to dump site!

Lexmark X264dn Multifunction Laser Printer

 

In this age of online documents, sometimes you still need a fast printer that kills trees. If you're a small legal office, print large preview documents for clients or need high capacity archival printing, a fast laser printer with capacious paper...

Excellent print performance; easy setup; good quality print output; affordable

Abysmal scanning software; high-capacity tray and Wi-Fi cost extra

Our five-page test document, consisting of mixed graphics, text and photos, printed in just 19.2 seconds from a cold start. (That’s the time taken from pressing the “print” button in Microsoft Word until final output.) Copying the same five pages...

Fast, simple, easy to use B&W MFP perfect for home.

 

Running a small business out of the house requires an MFP. Back a few years ago, a good B&W MFP would have run $700, but like everything in the computer world, they become cheaper. Sometimes that's done sacrificing quality and features, but Lexmark hit...

1. Easy to configure. Out of the box and running in less than 15 minutes ; 2. Tons of interface configurations. Wifi, Ethernet and USB standard ; 3. Simple LCD interface. Not digging through menus like HP's buried layout ; 4. Low operating cost. High...

1. Envelope printing not intuitive. Had to mess with the paper feed defaults ; 2. Looks like a copier from 10 years ago. That's not much of a gripe though

Wonderful product, fast in all functions, economical enough with toner

 

Have these in three departments now and the department heads love them. All functions are fast, faxing is reliable and toner usage is not super high.

X264DN Review

 

Printer has great functionality and a great price. Would reccomend to anyone that needed a multifunction printer. Was easy to install and works well with a network of 10+ PC's and an IBM iSeries.

Consumer review by:

fantastic printer for the money

 

I purchased this printer from Newegg in June 2010. Since then I purchased the additional 550 page drawer. We currently use the 250 page drawer for legal size paper and the 550 page for letter size paper. It automatically chooses which tray to use for...

Complaints from users who don't know how to set up a printer

 

I am a Lexmark dealer. I like (most) Lexmark products. I like this Lexmark product. Yes, scanning could be easier. Ricoh is easier but their machines are no where near Lexmark in other aspects of user friendliness (okay... they're weird). HP is easier...

Over a year old and still printing

 

After reading all of the hype about this printer, I bought one in 2011. Since buying the printer I have been through 2 cartridges and I am currently awaiting a new cartridge ordered from Amazon. This printer requires a bit of finesse. The network...
