Lexmark's Z45SE definitely lives up to its plug-and-play promise. It's easy to set up and use and produces good output, all for a low price. Installation is simple. The drivers are easy to install and the print cartridges readily click in to replace. Unfortunately, the manual comes only on disk, but good support is available from Lexmark's Web site. The printer itself also talks you through the printing process--literally--making it very easy to operate; it even aligns the print heads automatically. From the box to your first print should be less than five minutes.

The Z45SE's attractively styled case is compact, measuring 7.3 inches high by 17.5 inches wide by 9.6 inches deep, making it easy to place on your desk. The print tray pulls out easily for paper insertion. The Z45SE is also reasonably fast: an A4 color photo takes less than a minute. For printing photos, higher-resolution images printed using a higher setting (300 dpi or greater) are vastly superior to low-resolution prints, the latter suffering from very noticeable banding.

The only downside, as with most budget inkjet printers, is the operational cost. After a few months of replacing the ink cartridges, you might spend as much as a new printer would cost. However, for modest-volume users, the printer's initial low price makes it a good value.

This USB-only printer has a resolution of up to 2,400 x 1,200 dpi and, according to Lexmark, outputs up to 15 pages per minute (ppm) in black and 9 ppm in color (the reality is more modest). Despite the Lexmark Z45SE inkjet's low-end price, it doesn't sacrifice quality in the quest for a bargain. --Kristen Bowditch
Amazon.com Product Description
The Z45se color Jetprinter produces up to 4,800 x 1,200 dots per inch (dpi) resolution on photo paper. This easy-to-use, Windows- and Mac-compatible printer offers speeds of up to 15 pages per minute (ppm) in black and up to 9 ppm in color. Even with non-photo-quality paper, the printer can achieve photo-quality resolution of up to 2,400 x 1,200 dpi, including plain paper, iron-on transfers, and card stock.

Automatic cartridge alignment eliminates the need for manual alignment, as an optical sensor reads the alignment page and automatically updates the printer settings. Lexmark's Accu-Feed paper-handling system virtually eliminates paper jams while handling a range of media, from envelopes to paper stock up to 150 pounds.

Finally, an intuitive graphics interface system helps ensure a more enjoyable and productive printing experience with easier installation, a helpful "how to print" wizard, detailed trouble-shooting, and special job-finishing options. The unit is backed by a one-year warranty.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Printer.......2003-09-26

This is my 3rd Lexmark printer. All lexmark printers that I have owned have been wonderful. They have never broken, I just replace to upgrade. This printer is excellent. Extremely nice print with good quality print....(just make sure the ink is dry before touching the paper tray!) Small photos look super (4x6). Great price, but ink is very high $$$$$$$. You might want to try buying refurbished cart. available on web sites.

4 out of 5 stars Decent for the price.......2003-05-08

The biggest draw of this printer is the price, which becomes very attractive after a rebate from Lexmark. The print quality seemed to me to be pretty much standard for mid-range inkjets. Black text appears dark and crisp, and basic colors on the Better or Best settings are comparable to HP deskjet series printers. I haven't yet tried photos on photo paper, but on plain paper they are passable. The biggest drawback is the cost of cartridges from Lexmark, at $30+ for each (black and color). The color cartridge seems to drain pretty quickly, but the black one, if mostly text is printed out, lasted me over 600 pages, which is not bad. All in all, a very solid buy for this price.

5 out of 5 stars Great features...even talks!.......2002-11-25

I just got this printer today after having an HP for a few years. Set-up was a breeze! (I have win98) I was very impressed with this printer. I'm a college student so I could not afford the pricey printers, but I wanted to print picures. The pics come out awesome! It has a lot of great features, which I was surprised at. I love the on-screen ink indicator, which you can even customize!! The printer even talks to you(not much just says that printing is starting or complete-but still a cool option). Also, when you go into print-properties, an "I Want To" list comes up, click on what you want to print and it walks you through everything. It also has auto printer head alignment and a feature that eliminates paper jams. A GREAT PRINTER!!
