Pretty Good!!! I'm Surprised!!!, September 12, 2006
This review is from: Lexmark X3470 Color All-in-One Inkjet Printer (Office Product)
I had a Epson CX6600 big and bulky and I had to use 4 different inks but it died on me. I think it was the print heads (I used generic ink to save some money and it stop printing). So I had to get another "All In One Printer" quickly and I didn't want to spend alot of money.
I got this printer for under $50.00 bucks it takes only ONE cartridge for $19.99 and it prints pretty good, pictures are not great but pretty good for a 50.00 printer. Copies are good and so far I am totally surprised and pleased with this little all in one. Lexmark is known for their expensive inks but this ink cartridge is only $19.99. Don't know how long the ink lasts yet but overall I would say it is good printer for the money and I am pleased with it.

Not a bad all-in-one, March 8, 2007
This review is from: Lexmark X3470 Color All-in-One Inkjet Printer (Office Product)
I bought this printer because of it's small size, and for the most part I have not been disapponted. The worst part about it is that there is no black ink cartridge, it uses a mix of colors to create black which definitely leaves something to be desired. For a $50 printer I got what I paid for, which is what I expected, so I am not disappointed.

not terrible, January 8, 2007
This review is from: Lexmark X3470 Color All-in-One Inkjet Printer (Office Product)
I picked this all-in-one up at my local office max for $39...great price. Yes, it uses a composite ink cartridge, so if you print alot of text the black isn't terribly sharp. However, I find it prints photos and color scans pretty nice and clear, and the speed is good too. The scanning is pretty quick too, with alot of options in the software. You can also configure it through your computer to do faxing, but keep in mind the machine doesn't do it stand alone.
I spoke to Lexmark about the quality of the starter ink cartridge (#1), they say the replacement cartridge gives better print resolution and color than the one that ships with the unit as a starter, I'll see when I replace it.
I find the prints on plain white recyclable paper not the greatest, but on heavier paper and glossy photo, the prints are actually quite good. I'm not sure I would pay $100 on up for this unit, but for the price I paid, I'm happy with my purchase.
If you are printing alot of text based pages, this may not be the best for you, switch to one of the all-in ones that use a black and separate color cartridge. Otherwise for color, it does a nice job.
