Product Description
The Lexmark X85 is an all-in-one solution that brings together Lexmark 4800x1200 dpi professional printer technology for photo quality printing with a 600x1200 dpi resolution scanner for the best enlargement results. It offers true precision scanning with a 48-bit color recognition system that can detect trillions of colors.The X85 is a color copier, so you can copy magazines or photos in their natural colors. It is a flatbed scanner with a detachable cover so you can scan and copy thick, bulky, oversize documents and objects (encyclopedias, maps, etc.). The X85's built-in LCD display allows stand-alone installation and operation: you can instantly select the number of copies, the print quality and the enlargement format, just like on a traditional photocopier.
Amazon.com Review
A smart, high-resolution multifunction machine, ideal for the home or small office, the Lexmark X85 is a capable printer, scanner, and standalone copier. In a smart black and silver livery, it looks like a desktop photocopier, and can easily perform this function in both black and white and color. To make copies, there's no need to connect the machine to a computer, as the two-line LCD and panel of 15 buttons provide all the control you need.

Indeed, one can do a lot from the control panel, including checking ink levels, enlarging up to poster size, and adjusting the machine's settings. However, the LCD is not easy to read and has no backlight, so you'll need a good room light source.

Paper feeds from a bin at the back of the machine through to an output tray that slides out from the front. You place your original on the glass of the X85's flatbed scanning engine. There's no multisheet feeder, so you'll have to copy page by page, but copy times are quite reasonable, even in color.

In our tests, print quality was generally very good, with precise, dense black text and well-reproduced colours. There are two photo print modes, photo and max photo, but for most purposes the much quicker photo mode will be sufficient. There was little obvious difference in the printed output, although dithered sections of fine tone were marginally improved. Print times varied between good, for straight text prints (a five-page text document finished in just over 1.25 minutes) and extremely sluggish (a 3-by-5-inch photo in max photo mode, which took just under 8 minutes).

Despite the low-contrast LCD and slow photo printing time, the X85 is a good general-purpose multifunction device, offering strong software support that is ideal when space is at a premium. --Simon Williams

5 out of 5 stars Great Product........2004-04-07

Never had a printer quite like it!!!! This thing does EVERYTHING!!!

5 out of 5 stars Best Buy.......2003-10-18

I've had my Lexmark X5150 printer for a little over 3 weeks and couldn't be any happier. It prints the most beautiful photos, best text and doesn't have to be connected to my computer. It's won me over to strictly Lexmark from now on. Thanks Lexmark.

1 out of 5 stars Avoid at all costs.......2003-06-30

I purchased the Lexmark X85 with the hopes of getting a good All-In-One printing machine, two days later I returned it and got a good All-In-One Machine in the Lexmark X5150.

Just about everything was wrong with the X85. It missaligned everything, unless it was on the exceding slow Max-Photo setting. Even at regular speed it was way too slow. Whenever it printed something it sounded as if it was about to explode. The program it came with was about as user friendly as a SWAT team to a wanted criminal. In fact the only thing that worked on the thing was the scanner that worked very nicely. Otherwise the machine was [...].

If you are thinking about purchasing the X85, don't. Spend the extra money towards something better like the X5150, heck even the cheaper X75 is better than the X85. So I guess what I am trying to say is do not get this machine, there are much better ones out there, even for less money.

2 out of 5 stars A trouble maker.......2003-06-27

I purchased my X85 6 months ago, since then, I got a lot of troubles with this priner. The first time I used it to print a color photo, it came out all pink. called customer service, they send me a new catriage, now the color is still not right, the images are either too blur or two dark. Also the copy does not seem right. sometimes the first couple of black copy came out all black ink, after a few times, it will do copy. the quick mode does not work properly either. And it constantly lose connect with my computer ( I use window XP). Finanlly I got fed up with this printer, and I call customer service again, now they have 1800 or 1888 number for technical support, upon my request, they agree to send me a new model x5150 with a reasonable extra charge. The new X5150 works great with photo printing, now I can send picture to my family and friend printed from my printer. Compared with X5150, X85 is a trouble maker. Would not recommend this, but Lexmark customer service is not bad.
