I Agree, they make shit printers, and also they're ink cost the equivalent to a new bubble jet cheap printer, i might as well buy a new printer everytime i purchase ink!

not only that
they play around with your printer spooler and replace it with their own exe

so you will have a bit of trouble if you uninstall the lexmark and try to install something else

yeah, i dunno abt that- but i do know that laser toners costs more than ink catrdiges- and rem. that bubble jet printers are cheaper- so overall its cheaper for u and u can get same quality (provided that ur not looking for speed). :s

the best printer to have is a laser colour printer (if u have the dough that is)

otherwise a bubble jet shuld b alright i reckon- just read the above posts and make your own decisions since only u know ur real printing needs and stuff. :)
