Printer Reviews
Unlike many other Lexmark products, you will find that the Lexmark T650n is not cheaper than similar products with the same capacity. Since Lexmark usually produces lower quality products, it should come as no surprise that many people feel the Lexmark T650n has a substandard level of quality. That said, people that are loyal to the Lexmark brand are likely to overlook these issues since they feel comfortable with the basic devices.

Patti Johnson – I never thought I would see a printer work this fast. The Lexmark T650n truly does print 45 pages per minute. I feel it does a good job, and am glad that I chose this model over others that have a similar rating. Speed is very important in my home office, as I often have bulk brochures and other items to print.
Olivia Smith -- Since I print checks and sensitive tax reports, I felt it was time to have some type of secured printer. The Lexmark T650n has everything I need, including a wonderful suite of software that adds an extra layer of protection to my printing ques. I was also pleased to find that the security software works well with my firewall and other security features. It is truly wonderful not to have to worry about prints being stopped or other problems because the driver was not written properly from this perspective.
What users don't like about the product
· poor print quality
· expensive – 750.00
Catherine Inoue – I bought this printer because I wanted fast and good quality printing. Unfortunately, the print is very blurry, and the toner smudges all over the place. It does no good to adjust the toner using the driver settings. Upon calling the manufacturer, they could not give me any useful answers. Too bad I did not read reviews on this, and other Lexmark products, or I would have seen they routinely produce printers that do not work well at all.
Wally Trent – I decided to buy this printer because of the security features, but am not at all happy with the price. Also, the print quality is so poor, I find myself wishing I had looked to see if I could find a second hand printer from another manufacturer. People should be aware this poor quality is typical of Lexmark, and should not be fooled just because they used a higher price this time.
Recommendations
We feel the Lexmark T650n is not suitable for the vast majority of home or office purposes. Since the print quality clearly does not match the price, we feel that you would be better off looking at printers from other manufacturers. If a secure printing environment is necessary, there are other manufacturers that produce similar devices.
