Lexmark Intuition S505 Ink Review
The Lexmark Intuition S505 is an multi-function colour inket printer which includes scanning and copying features
Laser printers may perhaps finally be coming of age, however judging by the vast variety of models in Lexmark's brand-new range, right now there continues to be a good market regarding quality colour inkjets. In fact, while a number of laser printers are now beginning to flirt with reduced double-digit prices, many new inkjets are homing in on the £150 mark. The Lexmark Intuition S505 isn't actually that highly-priced, yet it is only going to miss by about £9. What exactly will you get with this price?
Today's inkjets are starting to be like Swiss Army penknives. The Lexmark Intuition S505 offers a wide range of elements to keep both photo fans and also home office users content. The latter may well be drawn to the duplex facilities, and even whilst there is no Ethernet support, the printer can connect wirelessly using 802.11b/g - however to be honest Lexmark led the way over two years ago in kitting out all its devices with Wi-Fi.
Photo fans might in addition wish to take advantage of this wireless option, even though they'll most likely prefer the clear 2.4in Liquid crystal display, and the convenient memory card drive (supporting nearly all common formats, from Sony Memory Stick to Secure Digital and also xD Picture).
In addition, the S505 is a multifunction scanner and copier as well, and the 100-page auto-sheet feed is a good complement to these features. The scanner creates vibrant results, with reasonable colour fidelity.
The Lexmark S505 ink cartridges can be found in a range of choices, the best value are the 100XL cartridges in return program form.
Typically, Lexmark has tended to fare very well on features, yet has fallen off on true overall performance. There are distinct signs that the firm is upping the level of quality of its printing features, and the S505 is in fact really respectable. It is not flawless though, and it's certainly not really as fast as you may desire given the price. Up to 33ppm is blithely guaranteed by Lexmark, but even in the quickest text setting, we could just coax a maximum of 12.5ppm.
Mind you, in comparison to the epson models, the s505's lowest quality setting is actually still extremely usable, with characters rendered precisely compared to the rivals. In fact, 7.7ppm is achievable in the Middle quality setting, and here the S505's characters are dark as well as well-formed - if missing the highly detailed quality of a laser.
The S505 excels while printing colour graphics to normal paper, even if perhaps it's not as amazing on special photo paper. Put into use with normal media, the fast option of 6ppm generates light and slightly banded, though nonetheless alluring final results. In Normal mode, the images fizz with vivid colours.
There is really mild banding, though you need to search hard to make it out, plus the overall results are really eye-catching. The Best mode of the S505 declines to well under a page a minute, and the colours here tend to be a bit lighter yet very very well formed and realistic.
On photograph paper, however, the prints are lacking in that little added life which you anticipate the good quality associated with the media to create.
The Lexmark Intuition S505 is actually very close to being an excellent printer. But it is perhaps just a little slow, and the cost is a little too much. The duplex is also a little unsatisfactory. Hold out for the Lexmark Intuition S505 to slide near to the £100 mark and it will be definitely worth purchasing.
