I'd been eyeing All-in-Ones for probably a year before my husband managed to get from me which one I wanted. The old romantic soul gave me my Lexmark X83 All-in-One for Valentine's Day. Just what everyone woman thinks she'll receive, right? In this case,...

Pros: Good quality print & copy, easy to use, can work from keypad w/out computer
Cons: Poor photo quality printing, cannot network with other computers in the house

This printer was extremely easy to set up. I thought it would be complicated because of all of the features. However, as soon as you plug it in, the digital screen on the printer walks you through everything. The directions were very easy to follow...

Pros: Does printing, copying and scanning in a single unit.
Cons: Requires the computer to fax

Introduction I had a lot of photos that I needed to scan into my computer and wanted a combo unit so as to save space. I have always heard that Lexmark was a good choice for printers and a friend of mine had an X73 combo unit that he was very ...

Cons: Some features can't be accessed by software if Windows XP. No paper manual.

There are quite a few things to like about this "Whatever this is" I will refer to it as an AIO (all in one) The AIO is USB, and nothing but USB. But as I run a multi-boot XP/Win98 machine, this is a plus for it's ease of plug and play-ness. My ...

Pros: An excellent printer for the money
Cons: Not compatible with Windows XP

I had a problem with the scan and copy control program loading when I would log on to windows XP. It would not start so the printer would not function and this also caused my other printer (HP) not to work also. XP would tell me I need to install a...

Pros: BEST customer service representatives I have EVER dealt with! Please continue to see why!
Cons: Slightly more expensive than other printers; however, the price is worth it!

A poor graduate student in the Geographic Information Systems field, I required a fast, efficient, color printer and scanner. After comparing prices, it became evident that these components, along with photocopying and faxing functions, would be most...

Pros: Simple Copy button (in theory). That is about it
Cons: Its Crap - Disfunctional, bad design, incompatable, terrible print quality

I threw away the receipt thinking this would be the last printer I would ever need. Boy was I wrong. I wanted something that printed excellent quality for my photos (at 1200dpi they should be perfect), had a simple copy function with scanner, and had...

Pros: Cheap, compact, decent print quality when it works, did i say cheap?
Cons: expensive ink, no *nix support, crappy paper handling, USB-only

i've had this printer for about 8 months, now. i'm ready to try another brand :( the printer is dirt cheap and has a ton of features, but as usual, you get what you pay for. ink cartridges don't last all that long....

Pros: Price; Functions; Quality of Printing; Speed of machine;
Cons: Runs Through Ink Rather Quickly;

The Lexmark X-83 is one of the nicer machines out there for the price. They used to run $200 or more, but are now down to 105-120. The machine can scan to file, email or print. It can fax using the computer's software. It can copy an article or photo...

Pros: For the money, as well as a single footprint, it can't be beat.
Cons: As good as the color output is, it's not a real photo printer.

This was my first multifunction printer. Extremely easy to set up and use, with the added plus of being a full functioning stand alone color copier. After having it for 3 weeks, the scanner locked up. After 10min on the phone w/Lexmark service, they...

Pros: Works great as a standalone copier. But the functionalities are great.
Cons: Paper jams. Fax misleading

When I was about to purchase the printer it said that amongst the capabilities were faxing. But it failed to mention that you need a modem that is attached to your computer. Sort of misleading, since there are multi function printers on the market that...

Cons: There is a problem with the scanner locking on some of the machines.

The Lexmark X83 is the first printer I have owned. I was amazed to find one compact unit that can do so much. It is a printer, scanner, fax machine all in one. All of it's features are easy to use and easily accessible. There is not alot of complicated...
