Lexmark International, a global imaging leader, today announced it has been awarded the 2017 Colour Printer/MFP Line of the Year from Buyers Laboratory (BLI).Based on the lab’s product testing in 2016, BLI honoured Lexmark as offering the best and most complete colour printer/MFP line in terms of excellent reliability, consistently superb colour output, intuitive design and outstanding value.

Lexmark’s newest, most advanced A4 colour devices include the Lexmark CS700 Series printers, Lexmark CX700 Series MFPs, Lexmark CS800 Series printers and CX800 Series MFPs. These products won five BLI “Pick” awards in 2016.

Many of the colour laser devices deliver the highest toner capacities in their class as well as industry-leading long-life imaging components, resulting in fewer user interventions and Lexmark’s best-ever colour total cost of ownership.

Driven by a powerful quad core processor, the newest devices boast the fastest print and copy speeds available in their respective A4 classes.

Lexmark’s flagship offering, the Lexmark CX860 Series, offers the highest toner capacity, the largest input capacity and the most flexible media support of any A4 colour laser MFP. The Lexmark CX860 Series is so advanced it rivals the capabilities of A3 products, allowing businesses to bring colour production in-house.

With a tablet-like touchscreen interface and flexible media handling, these products are easy to use, require minimal training and enable future integration of business process solutions.

“From small workgroups through large departments, Lexmark offers a colour printer or MFP designed to meet the needs of business users,” said BLI Director of Office Equipment Product Analysis Marlene Orr. “Lexmark’s colour models offer maximum uptime, thanks to strong reliability and high-yield consumables, coupled with an outstanding value, thanks to their low total cost of ownership.”

“Winning BLI’s Colour Printer/MFP Line of the Year award further validates our commitment to providing our customers innovative products and solutions that help propel their business forward,” said Allen Waugerman, Lexmark senior vice president and chief technology officer. “By combining quality, reliability, speed and ease of use with a low total cost of ownership, our industry-leading colour printers and MFPs deliver best-in-class results for our customers.”
