Lexmark X3350 Ink Cartridges

The Lexmark X3350 is one of the more basic all-in-one units in its class of home office inkjet printers that offers minimal, but efficient features. One of its best attributes is its quick output, which tested to print near its maximum speeds of 22 pages per minute for monochrome documents and 15 pages per minute for color projects. While it lacks a fax modem and a host of other standard multifunction features, the machine uses cost-efficient Lexmark X3350 printer ink for affordability. It also incorporates print, copy and scan functions for a very low price tag.

A size of 11x17x20 inches will allow it to fit on a desktop, and the inclusion of a rear USB port will allow users to connect to their desktop computer. Although it goes further to include a PictBridge port for printing straight from cameras, the X3350 lacks other connection options like memory card slots, an ethernet interface and Wi-Fi. It also lacks an automatic document feeder for continuous scanning and a color preview screen for images.

The simple features the X3550 does provide include a small control panel that has a monochrome LCD and a Quick Start button, as well as single 100-sheet input tray. Considering the small total media capacity and its maximum monthly duty cycle of 1,000 pages, this printer is best suited to support the needs of low-volume home offices.

According to experts, the X3350 performed adequately on output tests and is able to print graphics and photos with a resolution of 4800x1200 dpi using color printer ink. Text projects didn't perform as well, testing below par with blurry characters despite a resolution of 1200x1200 dpi.

Yields of only 195 pages for each standard tricolor supply and 200 pages for the black Lexmark X3350 ink cartridge are fairly low. However, users have the option to purchase high-capacity replacements that can last up to 450 pages for the tricolor supply and 475 for the black Lexmark X3350 ink cartridge. Users also have the option to use a photo color supply that can yield 135 pages and improve the quality of images considerably.

The X3350 is ideal for supporting the light-duty needs of users working from home, providing a minimalistic package of features and a basic 3-in-1 design. Those with more frequent printing needs or looking for a unit with a built-in fax machine will be better served with one of the more versatile models in its class of inkjet printers.
