Good Points
Very good image quality. Very good sheet feeder. Dependable and easy to set up.
Bad Points
There is no black ink cartrige, so printing many documents isn't a good idea for you will run out of color ink very fast. It does not shut itself off when it looses the signal from the computer, which is a nuisance. It's not very fast.
General Comments
I bought this Lexmark Z11 printer for a very low price at Wal-Mart. I have printed many pictures at 1440 DPI and they all look great. I set mine up in about 5 minutes and had no problems, I wouldn't expect many other people to have problems with their software or hardware setup. This is not a printer for printing up documents, I use mine only for color pictures and use a different printer for all black and white documents (I have a laser printer for documents). This unit is small and can operate in tight places unlike some. I have never had any problems with the sheet feeder. It has never jammed up. The ink never clots or sprays poorly. This is a great unit for color photos, etc. I would recommend this unit if you found a good deal on one.

black cartridges are available and can be swapped in for continuous black printing!

The ink supplies for this printer are indeed overpriced. I have been using remanufactured and/or reloaded cartridges with no problems, no loss of sharpnes in B&W nor vibrant color.

This printer does not print at 1440. Only 1200 or 600 DPI.
