Lexmark Z845

Résumé : The Z845 is capable of decent prints, but it could prove more expensive to run than a car.

Conclusion : At its (slow) best, the Lexmark Z845 can conjure up fairly good prints; bigger concerns include the unconvincing build quality and hefty running costs.

Points forts : Very inexpensive ; decent speeds for the price ; a cinch to set up and maintain ; Lexmark's Solution Center utility covers lots of ground and is helpful

Points faibles : Print quality is not great ; large footprint for a single-function printer

Conclusion : For tight budgets where only the occasional printout is needed, the single-function Lexmark Z845 is a good choice. It can't match the feature sets, the print speeds or the print quality of pricier models, but it's cheap and simple to operate

Points forts : Very inexpensive ; decent speeds for the price ; a cinch to set up and maintain ; Lexmark's Solution Center utility covers lots of ground and is helpful

Points faibles : Print quality is not stellar ; large footprint for a single-function printer

Conclusion : provides all-around better print quality, though no improvement on text print speeds.
