This is my second Lexmark. First was a smaller color printer, which worked amazing for the 6 years I owned it, and continues to work for the friend I gave it to.
I needed a quick-printing black/white printer for a good price, and due to the amazing experience I had with the first one, chose to purchase this one (about 4 years ago).
Since then, I have:
1) moved 6 times, across the United States from San Diego to Seattle, from Seattle to Orange County CA (4 locations of moves here), back to San Diego, and most recently to Connecticut.
2) printed Thousands of pages with no problems
3) never once had to call tech support
4) never used the cover that came with it
It has been banged around, dropped, had fireplace ash dumped on it, and cats jumping up and laying on it. It continues to function just like it did when it was brand new. NO paperjams, NO black inc lines, and I've done very little to maintain / clean it.
Although I DID have to use tech support a few times on my first Lexmark, the color printer, I MUST say it was, for the first time in my life, a good experience.
Customer Service is:
1) courteous, friendly, verbally articulate and helpful
2) willing and able to fix the problem on the spot
3) generous to have not ever charged me, even replacing a faulty thing free-of-charge, 3 years after I purchased it
4) still the #1 reason I chose to buy another Lexmark.
Hands down the BEST printers I've ever owned.

Fast easy setup, fast easy printing, low noise—AirPrint for Apple
So far, this is a fantastic printer. The setup wizard makes this very easy to set up using an iPhone. Our family has 4 iPhones, 5 iPads, and 2 iPod touches, AirPrint is a critical component for us. Our previous printer is the Ricoh in the second photo. It prints nice quality for cheap, but it’s miserable to use with apple devices.This Lexmark is a perfect and seamless component in our home apple ecosystem. There is one small trick, make sure your device is on the same WiFi network as the printer, otherwise no available printer will show up in your printer options. We have Fios by Frontier, and they provide a wireless router, but we have a much better Orbi home network we use. So with two different WiFi options, it can get a little confusing, because your device may auto select either network, but your printer will only use the network you chose on setup. If you have problems with AirPrint, check your WiFi settings.This Lexmark is much quieter than the outgoing Ricoh, and has a much smaller power draw. It warms up much faster, and prints much faster. Our old Ricoh would dim the lights during its 50 second warm up cycle, this Lexmark barely makes a sound, and completes warm up in well under 10 seconds. So if power draw on an overloaded circuit, or noise, are factors for you, you’ll appreciate this as much as I do.
