Some bugs

 

Lexmark should release update to the firmware to address this problem. Technical support rep. say there is no firmware available for this printer.

Nice looks, quick printing, able to feed large forms.

Expensive and noisy. But these are expected for dot matrix printer. Real problem is when SNMP is enabled (default) auto tear off becomes nearly unusable. This printer will move the continuous paper to a set tear off position, then moves paper back to...

Luv My Lex: Lexmark x2580 NOT WIRELESS All in One Printer

 

(NOTE: contrary to the category title Epinions has assigned to this model- this is NOT a wireless printer) I'm in shock. I'm used to paying a pretty penny for my technology, and when our old Lexmark all-in-one printer ...

The price and ease of use with this machine make it a huge bargain

Preferable to use Lexmark cartridges

Get your own Replacement Ink

 

I got this laptop free with a laptop combo that I bought at EBay. Seemed like a very good bargain at the time; an AIO for nothing. It did not have black ink or the USB cable with it. The printer is a little bigger in size; I have seen smaller, lighter ...

Good Print Speed and Quality, Computer Free Copying

Size, High cost replacement Ink

Color & Black Cartridges Included

 

Very easy to use, whether it's scanning or printing, in black or in color, or just making simple copies. Mine was free after rebate & DID include the black & the color cartridges. Software installation was a bit time consuming, but I've had completely ...

Easy to use ; different buttons on top for different commands. Don't need computer on

Replacement ink only at Circuit City ; no info online yet about refilling - too new

Ok but No Black Ink?? Makes it expensive!

 

Trying to find a simple, sturdy replacement for my old, trusty Epson 740i I was annoyed to find that nowadays so many printers are either very flimsy, or include features I don't want, or both. The Lexmark 2580 seemed to be reasonably sturdy, not too ...

Lexmark X2580: a "Circuit City Exclusive"

 

This is my review of the Lexmark X2580 as I had written it for CircuitCity.com. I don't know if they will post it (as it sorta bashes them a bit), but anyone considering this printer needs to know a few things: I saw this "all-in-one" ...
