Pros: Color Printing and Copying and a Scanner to boot
Cons: Questions about sturdiness
Summary: We were recently in need of a photo-quality printer at the credit union. Trying to conserve funds in the current environment we also wanted a machine that could serve as a copier at our car sales without weighing a ton. After testing a few printers we ... read more

Pros: I'm a fussy artist, willing to say both the scan and print quality are great!
Cons: Ink cartridges are expensive, and are fairly short lived.
Summary: The Lexmark X83 was recommended by Dell, where we got a complete computer system in August, 2002. I was astounded by the quality photocopies immediately; so was everyone else who saw them. I noticed a clouded effect either within or on the underside of ... read more

Pros: Good Price, printer quality bad. Looks nice, easy to use, easy to change color cartridges.
Cons: Doesn't like to print the first time around. Kind of loud and a little slow.
Summary: I normally would not write a review on any type of 'electronic' equipment because I don't know much about them at all. I am just the basic business person who wants to buy a product, take it home, plug it in and then it works!! Not too much to ask ... read more

Pros: SOMETIMES, IT WILL RUN WITH NO PROBLEMS!
Cons: MOST OF THE TIME, IT DOESN'T WORK!
Summary: I have Lexmark X83 printer that is connected to my Emachine personal computer, at my work place. I know not to count on it for anything of importance. I tried to, but, sometimes, WISH-craft is just not enough!
The printer does have excellent ... read more

Pros: An incredible value!
Cons: Haven't run into any yet.
Summary: We bought this at Sam's - they were blowing them out, off shrinkwrapped pallets, at $99 each. People were snapping them up and we weren't sure there would still be any if we came back later, so we decided we'd pick one up, go home and look through some ... read more

Pros: cheap
Cons: breaks down two months after warranty goes out
Summary: After owning the printer for 14 months, an error message appeared to "unlock scanner". All I ever did was use the printer from time to time to print Word documents and I scanned one or two items from time to time. The printer worked fine up until it ... read more

Pros: The x83 was very easy to set up and install into my computer programing.
Cons: X83 is incompatible with Windows Xp and breakdowns average every 3 months.
Summary: I have had this X83 printer for almost a year now. It is not the same printer I received with my computer. I am on my third replacement of the entire machine. Problems with the printer cartridges, the power cord, and not being compatible with Window XP ... read more

Pros: Great Copier and scanner
Cons: Horrible printer
Summary: After reading the reviews here we thought we'd give this printer a try as it was only $139 at Costco. Easy to setup. But when trying to print a half-page of text using Mac OS 9.2 and Word 2001, the printer took about 3 minutes to print that one page. ... read more

Pros: 3-in-1 features, user-friendly
Cons: Poor color quality for printing photos, Cheap plastic shell, USB cable not included.
Summary: The main reason I bought this printer was for its ability to scan and print with "photo quality." However, all the photos I have printed have had too much red and there is no way to calibrate the printer. Photos also print much darker than the original ... read more

Pros: So many features, easy to use, great printing ability
Cons: cartridges ran out quick
Summary: This workstation has it all, printer/scanner/copier/fax capable. It looks great and works even better. The scanner is quick and does great work.
I have not used the fax option yet, but I assume it works as good as the rest of the unit.

Pros: Clear Picture, Scans, Copys, and Prints. Fair Price.
Cons: USB cable does not come with it.
Summary: This printer's feeding mechanism is excellent, I have never had a problem with any paper jams yet. You just put the paper in the top and let it go through the feeder.
This printer's text quality is very good, you can read it real good. You can make ... read more

Pros: Great price, flatbed scanner, ease of setup and use.
Cons: No USB cable included, other minor.
Summary: Almost didn't buy the X83 due to reading mixed-bag reviews here and elsewhere. Owner opinions seemed to be either really bad or really good (strange). Was considering a comparable HP model instead, but similar mixed opinions on it. Settled on the Lexmark ... read more

Pros: Great price, great photo quality color copies/scans, great value!!
Cons: Noisy, lengthy time to copy in photo mode. Tends to add too much red.
Summary: Because of extensive graphics work, I needed to replace my printer and scanner. I was tired of the clutter of a fax, printer and scanner, so I thought I'd check out the multifunction machines. I had been warned that most were no good. They couldn't have ... read more

Pros: Low price, ease of operation
Cons: A bit noisy, flimsy, sometimes blurry, software average
Summary: Let me start this by saying that I have an OfficeJet G85 at home as my "all-in-one" machine. I'll also iterate that I spent close to $800 for it a couple of years ago.
For the office, I needed something that had decent color print/copy/scan ... read more

Pros: On-Board Photocopy feature easy to use;
Prints well
Quick and easy to set-up
Cons: Photos are not clear, noisy operation, software needs improvement, reliability questionable.
Summary: I received my first Lexmark X83 as a Christmas gift, and it's already been replaced due to a mechanism failure. I'm hoping it's an uncommon occurrence.
At any rate, I'm very happy with the print quality of this printer when it comes to black ... read more
