The Lexmark X4550 Wireless Color All-in-One Printer gives you the ability to print documents and photos, scan, and copy from anywhere in your home, thanks to built-in 802.11g wireless networking.

The printer offers up to 26 ppm black and 18 ppm color printing, and can print at up to 4800 by 1200 dpi for breathtaking photos.

Easy to setup. Got it today and I love it. The wireless feature extends to my walk-in closet. That is where I decided to keep the printer. So far, no problems. I tried scanning and it is awesome. It lets you choose the software you wish to save your scanned document to. The copying is super easy. I mean, this is a great product overall. And, last but not least, I checked the prices of the ink cartridges, and compared to other brands, these are very affordable. Highly recommended printer!

My husband and I both have had notebook computers for a couple of years now, and our (not that) old HP all-in-one was starting to have some major issues, neither copying nor scanning, and printing only in purple. So, when I started researching new printers and realized that there actually was technology out there for wi-fi printing, I was very happy.

After some research, I ordered this printer.

Set up, even the wireless connection, took approximately 10 minutes. My husband had it on his notebook, wirelessly, in another 5-10 minutes. The color is very true. Although photo printing is fairly slow, it is very good home quality for a "not photo" printer, and it does something the HP never managed to do, no matter what the settings - print an actual borderless 4x6 photo. I do use Snapfish for most of my photo printing needs, but this is terrific for my kids' school projects and other times when I need a couple of photos printed right away.

Pros:
Stupid simple setup, sees my home network (laptop with Vista, and desktop with XP64) through a wireless router.
Generally many good features for a low price.
Ink is much cheaper than my previous epson printer

Cons:
Scanner and fax cannot be operated through the wifi from your computer. You can send scanned images to the computer using the panel which of course makes some sense, but then you'll have to wait a few seconds every time, to download a list of all the applications that you can send the scanned image to.

Its either wifi or USB connection. You can't have both. If you connect the printer through a USB, wifi is turned off and your other wireless computers won't see the printer anymore.

I printed one 6x4 color photo, and the color ink went down to 94%. I doubt thats efficient color printing.

Scanning and printing quality is not the best I've seen. But thats what you get for an all in one device at that...Read more
