Lexmark X73 All-In-One Print Center

 

A few months back, I did a review of another Lexmark printer, the Z53 Colorjet Printer. While I thought it was a decent printer, I was really looking forward to reviewing this unit, the X73.

It's Like The Energizer Bunny In Printers!

 

I purchased this printer almost 6 years ago. I've decided it was finally time to praise my old girl. The reason for my 350$ purchase was simply because I was sick and tired of the cheap canons that they sell at walmart for $20. The ink cartridges ...

Printer is so reliable. Have had mine for 6 years and running...

small usb cable, paper tray only holds about 10 sheets, bulky machine

Lexmark Lacks Quality

 

I bought the Lexmark X73 all-in-one ink-jet Printer/Copier/Scanner/Fax machine when it first came out, about 2 years ago. I really liked the idea of having an all-in-one machine, and I felt the price was pretty reasonable. Although it has held ...

Cost of use. Speed of Printing.

Quality.

Going strong for a year and a half with heavy daily use.

 

This machine has seen me through several projects. I recently made up a family calendar and printed out 15 beautiful copies of crisp family photos--and that was on the normal quality print setting. It handles all thicknesses of paper well and is easy...

Affordable and great quality printing

Need additional software to fax multiple pages

No wonder the price keeps falling...

 

Though it has never actually jammed, this device has frequently pulled multiple sheets of paper from the paper stack at once. The feed seems a little too aggressive and has misaligned the paper on occasion, causing the document to be crooked on the...

Cheap price. All-in-one convenience.

Very slow. Quirky software. Expensive ink. No USB cable.

Multifunction Piece of Crap

 

We bought the X73 at Wal-mart back in May. I needed a scanner and a color printer for my business and asked the guy at Wal-Mart what he would suggest. HE said honestly, he could not recommend anything in the store, as it is really better to get...

Inexpensive, fairly good resolution when printing

Good printer for the price...

 

The Lexmark X73 is generally a fast printer with good quality print for text. I found the quality of the print to go down somewhat with the printing of pictures that were scanned.

Fast and easy for the price

Somewhat big

That was too much for me...

 

I never actually "paid" for this item it came with the desktop I had purchased. Normally if I would buy a printer, it would be the lower ranged models. But like I said it came free with my desktop so I opted to get it.

Multi purpose system, sharp copying, fast printing

price? large

Nice features for a very nice price.

 

My first experience with Lexmark wasn't a great one, let me be honest. I recieved a free Lexmark printer (a basic one, you know the deal) with my Compaq Presario that I had purchased more than 2 years ago. Well, first off, the printer didn't work..at...

Nice quality for the price, great price, pretty fast.

Tech support poor, couldnt get it to work with Windows 2000 w/o a struggle.

Lexmark X73

 

After using the various Cannon inkjet printer for years, along with a flat bed scanner, I was in the market for a color printer that also functions as a copier and scanner. That's how I came across Lexmark X73. It came with a manual and two discs, a...
