"This is a horrible printer. My konica minolta that I bought 8 years ago for 90$ gives better black & while prints than this 600$ lexmark printer.

Initially the printer worked great, excellent colors. Then very soon it started printing gray backgrounds. AFter a little use, the print quality dropped from 9star to 3 start.

It is very heavy and comparatively very loud.

Toner cartridges include security features to discourage buying generic non-brand cartridges. The company has made every effort to make you buy expensive toner from them only.
The printer comes with very little starter toner that would run out very quickly.

It can not handle good quality glossy papers and jams the paper. Excessive recalibration -every 2 hrs or so is inconvenient and reduce the printer life, waste electricity and toner.

After cleaning the waste bin at the bottom, i realized why the printer take so much toner. My hundreds of dollars of toner went into the collecter bin. what a waste of money."
