Lexmark printers always work - and can be drained dry. I've drained both my work Z53 and my home Z53 printer several times - never a glitch - and the Linux driver really works just as well as the Windows driver.

Not only that, but they are fast and accurate, and produce beautiful output.

Severe reprimand for mentioning Lexmark in the same breath as the lost and forlorn HP.

New Geez, you're a glutton for punishment, aren't ya?
Lexmark has, at least around here, a reputation for such sucky cheapness that they are explicitly banned from being purchased. We have three - all failed within a year. The printers, not the cartridges. The cartridges run out of ink insanely fast, and are also insanely expensive, AND have that stupid DMCA-enforced lockout chip in them.

Maybe you're lucky. But I've also noticed you enjoy Windows products... ;)

After 9/11, Bush made two statements:
1. "Terrorists hate America because America is a land of freedom and opportunity."
2. "We intend to attack the root causes of terrorism."

Sounds like everything is going according to plan.

We have the same experience with Epson and HP. I have had outstanding success with my Lexmark printers.

I don't "enjoy" Windows products - there are no alternatives if one wants real applications.

How can you die from a fall of a whopping 3 inches?
