Lexmark E232 toner printer is an option. Its low price is more in line with a personal model, but its potential expansion makes it a good fit for a multi-user environment. Buyers will save on printer toner with low-cost Lexmark E320 toner.
The design of the E320 is also somewhat reminiscent of a personal model, measuring just 15 inches by 14.3 inches by 8.7 inches, and weighing only 19.8 pounds. Don't let its compact size fool you, however, as it has a lot of power under the hood. Its 67 MHz processor and 4 MB of RAM can handle fairly complex documents, and the memory can be expanded to a maximum of 68 MB if needed.
The 150 sheets of paper capacity is enough to support a fair number of users without having to replenish paper often, and there is a single-sheet manual slot for alternate types and sizes of media. The unit supports a wide variety of media types including transparencies, envelopes, labels, cards and plain paper among others. Print speed is solid at up to 16 pages per minute, and print quality is very sharp and detailed, thanks to the 600 dpi printing engine.
Users need not worry about the cost of replacing toners, as Lexmark E320 toner cartridges are very affordable. Using third-party compatible Lexmark E320 toner, if you can find them, will reduce costs even lower, and the large capacity of Lexmark E320 toner cartridges means a low cost per page that will help users save money on every page. Compatible
Lexmark toner cartridges are becoming more difficult to find because Lexmark has patented various parts of their cartridges making it impossible to develop a compatible without violating the patents.
With the features that a small office needs in a compact design that would fit in a home office, the Lexmark E320 is very impressive. Its low price and expandability make it a great value for both home and small office buyers, and low printer toner costs make it very economical.
