Lexmark MB2338adw Printer and Toner

Hey guys, I just wanted to share my thoughts on this machine. Previous multifunction fax printer was having issues and despite it being less than nine months old (it was a canon), we had had enough and we’re looking for replacement. Years ago I owned a Lexmark printer. It served me very well, was a workhorse, and I honestly had no complaints and could not have been happier with it. When I was initially looking at this printer I was a bit hesitant. For starters, it being so heavily discounted gave me pause. I was concerned that perhaps people had experienced issues with this model and The remaining stock was being liquidated. I could not have been more wrong. After its initial set up, this machine has been the best fax/printer that we have ever had. It prints quickly with sharp text and images, spools quickly, and has a very speedy fax modem. The fact of the matter is, you won’t find a better deal on an enterprise grade machine that works so well and is so reliable. I will say that, as others have said, if you’re going to use this machine on a local network it would be important to have technical skills. I’m not using it for that purpose since I only connected to one computer. But there are apps available that allow you to print wirelessly via whatever computer you have connected to this printer or any other for that matter. It really is built like a tank. I’m pretty sure this thing could take take a couple of bullets and keep on printing. Just be aware that this is a machine intended for an enterprise environment. That’s not to say that it couldn’t be used in a home office or a small business. Just be aware that this is not a $100 inkjet that you could pick up at Best Buy. The network settings menu is for the technically inclined. With that being said, I am by no means a network engineer. I know how to set up basic Wi-Fi networks in my home and little more. When I received this MFC, I opened the enormous box and plugged in the power, tel, and USB cables and called it a day. If you do not intend to use this on a network, just know that it most definitely can be used in that way and if you do you have the know-how to establish this device on the network you can do that as well. We really have been so impressed by this machine. Lexmark can make a heck of a printer. Grab one before they are completely sold out... you won’t regret it.

I ordered two of them and they work great in a medium demand office. Pay close attention on the initial startup as you select your options. Some options are NOT available if you do not select them on the initial boot up. Then you have to reset the box to factory default to enable items like scan to email or scan to a SMB location. I almost dinged it one star for that but honestly if you take your time and read the start items rather than zipping through them you cant go wrong.

small foot print, handles good volume of copying. Should have more printed information as opposed to having to go on line Excellent quality, Minor difficulty with drivers for windows 10 64 bit, but should recommend getting driver off Lexmark site since disc does not allow it to connect computer with printer.

Replaced an ancient HP. This is current technology and works great. Many features; all seem to work, including FAX. L atiked the price.

Easy to set up and it works great. However its a little on the loud side, ... and it turns on at random and does some type of power cycle. Beings I use this in my home office, late at night its kind of scary when it just turns on without warning!

Great printer, this specific models interface is not as easy as the touch screen ones but it still works great!

Im still learning a lot things this printer can do. I never realized much of an advantage scanning option was. Printing quality is great, admittedly, it is mono or black & white. Most of what I did was black & white. A lot of black & white, I went through one 6K printer cartridge in a month. Great printer!

Works great. The only annoyance is that if you dont have a wired home network you need a printer style USB cable to get it working directly with you computer. Fortunately I had one laying around.

Simply awesome! I have used this model in a high volume setting and now needed one for my own venture. I know what abuse they will take and I know my need will not even be close to that so I know I got a workhorse for the long term. Setup was easy, put the enclosed cd in and follow the directions.
