Lexmark Pro 915 Color Inkjet Printer Overview

To those who have tried the Lexmark Pinnacle Pro901, you’ll probably get used to working with the Pro915 model. It’s basically an all-in-one color inkjet printer inline with the company’s high-end series of printing devices. This machine uses Vizix but with a much higher version of print engine for boosted color ink printing solution.

Lexmark Pro 915 Color Inkjet Printer Overview
Design and Basic Features


The family where it belongs to sports an edgy block cut on several corners and sides, which it certainly inherited. Just look at its control panel and you’ll know what I mean, but it’s actually a good thing making it a bit unique among the rest. A touch screen LCD sits at the center most of the panel with touch-sensitive buttons on either side. Its touch panel is very intuitive, with a combination of touch and swipe gestures you’ll surely find it easy to navigate.


Speed and Consumables


According to its manufacturer, the Lexmark Pro-915 has a claimed speed of 17 pages per minute and 10 image per minute (color). Duplex printing is of course available but it might be a little too slow for what you may expect from a printer with Vizix 2 engine. However, copying is considerably fast on both black or plaintext documents and with photos as well.

A color printer wouldn’t be that much efficient if it can’t provide impressive print results. That is what this machine actually proves through its revamped cartridges filled with innovated inks. Print results are very reasonable for the price of each replacement. Additionally, the cartridges come in standard and high-capacity particularly the Lexmark 150XL high-yield black ink. Installing or replacing these consumables is fairly easy it’s just like plugging flash drive into a port.

Interfaces and Connectivity


Considering its price, users deserve to have a generous set of interfaces. Let’s start below the control panel, there you’ll find USB ports, memory card slots and Pictbridge socket. There’s a phone line and handset jacks just in case you want to use the machine for faxing, both are found at the rear. But the most outstanding among these interfaces is its built-in wireless capability. However, setting it up on a wireless network may not be that easy. Actually there’s an app that you can download to make things easy.

Paper Handling


Media handling is fine for a small or medium-size office. With the automatic document feeder user gets a solid paper feeding mechanism. Unfortunately there’s no separate tray for photo papers and such. Hence, the standard 250-sheet tray is the only one you’ll have to use and reload with either plain or special paper, but not both. If you will be using it mainly for business printing which basically requires different media types, there’s an optional 250-sheet tray that you can add underneath.
