It’s relatively quiet in operation - a bit too loud to share your desk with your phone, but fine on an adjacent table within reach of your swivel chair. With paper trays extended, the unit measures roughly 13- by 18- by 20-inches. The X6650’s output is adequate, but nothing more. You can, however, swap the black cartridge for a tricolor photo cartridge ($32) to switch from four- to six-color output.įinally, you probably don’t expect $130 to buy you blazing speed and stunning output quality, and you’re not far wrong. The control-panel LCD is a two-line mini screen, not a color display for photo viewing and editing.Īnd instead of higher-end inkjets’ half-dozen or so color ink cartridges, which give you both better photo output and the cost-effective option to replace just one color when it runs dry, the Lexmark sticks with the familiar two-cartridge, four-color setup - black and tricolor ink cartridges, the latter holding cyan, magenta and yellow. There’s no duplexer for automatic double-sided printing. Wired (as opposed to Wi-Fi) connectivity is limited to USB 2.0, with no Ethernet port for small-office sharing. On the other hand, the Lexmark’s low price dictates some sacrifices. The Lexmark X6650 Wireless 4-in-1 Inkjet Printer A PictBridge USB port and two slots on the front panel for media cards (SD, MS, xD, MMC, and CF) allow printing images directly from USB flash drives or digital cameras’ memory cards.
There’s a 25-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) on top, so multipage copying or faxing jobs avoid the chore of opening and closing the scanner lid to place one page at a time. The X6650 offers other checklist items for multifunction printer shoppers. Its twin in the Small Office Pro series is called the X6675 and comes with a longer warranty and larger starter ink cartridges for $20 more. Or a small office network, of course, although since Lexmark has sorted its inkjets into two groups the X6650 is officially part of the company’s Home and Student Series. In addition to its simplicty of form, the Lexmark X6650 also appeals to our sense of thrift, since its $130 price buys a copier, scanner, and fax as well as a printer, plus 802.11b/g Wi-Fi for wireless printing on a home network.
