New Lexmark monochrome laser printers help small businesses print black, think green

LONDON - November 11, 2008

Lexmark International today introduced a new line of monochrome laser printers designed to help small and medium businesses lower costs while saving paper and energy.

"Lexmark is committed to helping our customers print less and save more," said Marty Canning, Lexmark vice president and president of its Printing Solutions and Services Division. "Our new line of monochrome laser printers offers outstanding image quality, fast print speeds and reliable operation to help businesses save time and money and reduce their impact on the environment."

The new Lexmark E Series monochrome laser printers are designed with eco-conscious features such as:

• Built-in two-sided printing to reduce paper waste
• Instant warm-up fuser, which saves energy when not in use and still ensures the first page of your document prints quickly
• Eco-Mode, which reduces power consumption further
• Lexmark Cartridge Collection Program for easy recycling

Customers can also count on sharp laser-quality text with up to 1200x1200 dpi print quality that ensures professional-looking documents.
