We bought this printer at a local store just for a cheap printer for shipping labels, some documents, and scanning ability. Nothing had to be super high quality. So for $40 I thought it was a good buy...well now I know better.
1) The prices for replacement ink is outrageous. I could buy a new printer for the price of the ink.
2) Apparently within a few weeks of buying this they stopped stocking ink at every store close to me. And I have had a very hard time finding it online for less than $50! Which to me is just totally insane!!!
3) The printer guzzles gas worse than a Hummer H-2 guzzles gas driving in town. I printed less than 50 pages of text only pages before needing more ink.
4) The printer comes on all by itself at the oddest times. Which is a waste of energy, and kind of eerie. Especially when I am sitting at my desk in an empty house and the printer starts making noises! Then turns on without me touching it and being across the room from it!
I haven't purchased ink to refill it yet, considering that I haven't been able to find it anywhere for a reasonable price. I am now looking to recycle it and just buy a new printer, that will be more cost effective.
Hope this helps anyone considering buying this...DON'T!Get more detail about Lexmark X2600 All -In-One Printer (12L1685).
