Lexmark X7170 Printer

 

Lexmark clearly aims its $180 X7170 at small offices, with features like a 50-sheet automatic document feeder and the ability to fax in color. The control panel consists of a backlit two-line LCD and a set of speed-dial buttons for frequently used fax...

Reasonable performance for business applications. Fifty-page ADF. Standalone faxing and color copying. Includes utility to fax from any program. Very good photo quality

Output quality for text and graphics is relatively low. Photo print speed with photo inks is on the slow side

The Lexmark X7170 All-In-One is a little weak on text and graphics quality and a little slow for photos, but it offers all the features you need in a home or small office: printing, scanning, copying, faxing, and the ability to work as a standalone...

Lexmark X7170

 

The X7170 looks and feels like it belongs in an office environment, and its features are appropriate for a small office that requires printing, scanni...

Solid software, fast text printing

Balance not quite right, poor copy quality

This package distinguishes itself by offering a good software suite that would benefit anyone who has not had much experience with a multi-function device. It is highly recommended for the small office, although for photo printing you may have to...

The Lexmark X7170 prints great colour photos, but bad text prints and the lack of media-card slots might frustrate users.
