Attractive and feature-rich, the X3470 is a great mid-range photo printer.

Don't bother

 

Don't cheap out when you buy a printer, research the product and check on replacement part prices. I would suggest that you buy a higher quality product.

This was a good printer for me while it lasted. The replacement ink cartriges were cheap. Good features for the price

A common problem with this printer is a switch inside that falls off while replacing the ink. To fix it, you have to take the printer apart. Due to cheap plastic parts, it is easy to break the switch, and when that happens, the printer isn't worth a thing

Excellent Print & Scan Device!

 

It has everything a printer should + 4 more useful devices!

High-Speed printing is VERY FAST ; High-Quality printing is Excellent quality ; The Scanner is very powerful. I can scan images at 2400 DPI! Only requires a single cartridge that holds BW-&-Color in the same container. Ink doesn't run out for awhile...

Does the Job Well.

 

I gave the Lexmark a 4 because it's a good machine, it does the job well, and if there were any accidents, errors, or anything like that, it can restart itself to look new again... But for the printing mechanism and the ink quality, it tends to be a...

Scanning Pixelations are adjustable to an extreme high levels of color. You only need one printing cartridge, and it's extremely cheap (both the printer and cartridges). There are extra multimedia card/usb readers to have a pleasure of printing pics...

Even though that this is a machine that does many for its work... its only con that I see is the loading mechanism. If you notice, the printer feeds itself and it slants the paper on the side, which may cause a paper jam in the future if the inside of...

Fast service, not the best price

 

Was in Target tonight and found the exact same printer for almost $xx less - the FIRST time Newegg wasn't lowest price in 5 or 6 years and over a dozen purchases.

Exactly what we were looking for - no frills printer/copier/scanner. Great looking, small profile, easy to use interface. Newegg service spectacular as always. Delivery 3 days after the order was put in

Printer takes single $22 ink cart. Lexmark's bundled software seems cheap and is a little bit intrusive (i.e. wants to install IE toolbar, etc.)

What a pinter!

 

For this price (although the cartridges ARE $21) this is alot of stuff. I was looking for a couple of weeks for a compatible PHOTO printer with x64, and this met all my needs.

Works with XP x64! That is a big pro...built in scanner, copier, and memory card reader. It is a great price for all of that

Order the additional ink. It comes with a "Startup Cartridge" which is good for just that: the initial printing the alignment page. It soon starts printing blue text

Junk in my opinion

 

Cheap. Easy to set up and run, and scanned okay I guess.

Extremely poor print quality, colours are very washed out.

Lexmark X3470

 

I will never buy Lexmark again. I bought this printer when it was on offer for what I thought was a bargain price (£25). Little did I know the trouble that I would have with it...I only wish I had read the thousands of sh*t reviews for this model.

Cheap football. Good scanner

Awful Abby reader (hardly works), useless printing ability (now won't print after 6 months use) . In essence, cheap JUNK
