Lexmark Intuition S505
The Lexmark Intuition S505 is a wonderful all in one machine that enables the user to print, scan and copy. Wireless networking ability is a function that makes this machine very convenient, as any computer in your home or office will be able to print to this machine. The Intuition is also a faster printer, making your copies quicker than others on the market. Another great feature is the ability to save on printer paper, as the Intuition also has two sided printing which also saves on the environment as well as your paper costs. The Intuition also has an energy saving mode feature where it can be shut down without turning it off.
Retail prices on the Intuition S505 can vary, from as low as $109 and upwards, depending on where it is purchased. The cartridges for this machine are comparable to others on the market, costing anywhere from $ 27 for the black and about $35 for the color ones. There is something to consider before purchasing this machine, as it does take four different color cartridges to completely make up the color printing. So replacing them may be costly for some people. The information booklet provided by the Lexmark Company indicates the Intuition can make about 5000 copies in the life of a set of ink cartridges. The Intuition S505 features Vizix print technology that means a sharper color image for all the photos one may want to print from their machine.
Another great feature of the Intuition S505 is the ability to insert memory card from different media sources into the machine and print off your printed material as well as your family photos. A color LCD display on the front of the machine will tell the user what function is currently operating, whether it is a letter being scanned, a story being copied or treasured photos being printed. A touch screen is located on the front display panel where the LCD screen is found, giving the user push button control, including a cancel button to stop unwanted functions.
Included in the shipping box is a one year warranty from the Lexmark Company. However, the user can obtain another two years free if they register their machine online at the Lexmark Company website within thirty days of purchase. Quick set up instructions as well as a user's guide on CD-Rom is included in the box, as well as all the cords one will need to hook up with printer, including the wireless set up cable.
