																Couldn't advise you what to buy but i can tell you I'd stay away from xerox phasers, I've used 2 in the past and had an absolute nightmare with them particularly the one with wax sticks, We were using them pretty hard to be fair, but the very tanned well holidayed xerox salesman assured us this wouldn't be a problem. I'd hunt him down if I didn't think he was sunning it up in the Costas.

Afternoon All,

I've recently bought a Lexmark C525 colour laser printer. I bought it because it was only £450 for full colour and network ready with duplexing. Plus my 8 year old Lexmark laser is still going strong. But.

It is really unreliable and eating through consumables like anything. It's asking for a new yellow cartridge (£108) when I haven't even printed colour since the last toner change (a month ago). I'm also getting nothing like the c5000 pages that each toner cartridge is supposed to deliver.

I've had engineers out etc. and they can't find a problem. So it looks like the Lexmark is going in the skip.

Can anyone recommend a decent colour, duplex, networked printer that can handle infrequent runs of 500 at a time and doesn't constantly break/run dry.

Cheers

Jim
