Lexmark Z review: Lexmark Z

 

Record-breaking print speeds; reasonable text quality; hassle-free setup and printing; low purchase price.

Fair to poor graphics and photo print quality; very high ink costs.

This printer is fast, cheap, and easy to use--too bad about its weak graphics print quality and high ink costs.

Excellent print quality; good speed, price

Large footprint, large envelope support

For a very, very long time Epson and Hewlett Packard were the only reasonable choices for Mac users looking for a SOHO printer. Lexmark is taking a run at the position of best SOHO printer with their Z53 inkjet printer. Is the larger Lexmark worth bu

Lexmark Z53 Review

 

Having reviewed virtually Lexmark’s entire Z line of printers, we’ve finally arrived at the current "flagship” consumer inkjet offered by Lexmark - the Z53. This printer $129US printer features the same general capabilities and 2400x1200dpi of the $99...

The Z53 is a fast printer. In plain text prints it is one of the fastest inkjets we have tested. Prints in normal quality mode (600x600dpi), on plain paper, clocked in at 12 seconds a page. That’s 5 pages per minute - the fastest we’ve clocked to...

Lexmark Z53 Colorjet Printer

 

Readers of mymac.com ask me quite often which products they should buy. I have been asked that question at least once a week, actually, for the past six years. The most common, besides “Which Mac should I buy?” is “Which printer would be best for me?”...
