Expensive cartridges - but no more so than others
I had had several Epson printers and a couple of Hewlett Packard and was not going to get a Lexmark because of its reputation.
The X1150 is the best printer I have ever had.
It comes with cartridges 17/27, which have less ink in than 16/26... which may explain the other writers comment about it running out quickly.
The 16/26 cartridges last double the time and you can pick them up on EBAY for under £30 a pair... I use it regularly and they last me a couple of months.
My husband who is useless on computers can manage to use it as a photocopier instead of going to the shops.. which is a plus, and they are in colour. It is brilliant at copying things like your passport/birth certificate/tv licence for sending off.. in colour.
The scanner is amazing.. it gives you choices of colour/black white/photo etc. So you get good clarity. You can then edit it on another screen.
It is a much quieter printer than the EPSON.
There is voice software with it that tells you things like 'your colour ink is low' or 'no paper in auto sheet feeder'. Trouble is it is a twangy american voice.
All in all I would give it 8 or 9 out of 10 for the price and quality.
