Lexmark X5470 review

First impressions are often correct. As such, a quick glance through the Lexmark's X5470 impressive-looking feature list and specifications might have you scurrying for your credit card.

Clever paper auto-sensing; It is cheap

Wonky printing; Smudging; Poor photo quality prints; Slow print speeds

The X prefix denotes that Lexmark aims this printer at small-to-medium businesses, but that's ambitious at this price. We'd suggest it's much better suited to small offices right down to personal use. Mono text documents had only the faintest trace of spidering, perfectly acceptable for an inkjet.

Lexmark X5470 All–in-One printer

All-in-one printers, scanners, copiers and fax machines are one of the best ways to go if you need all the devices on offer but suffer from a lack of desk space. The X5470 may not be particularly small but it looks quite nice thanks a clean and stylish design and nice grey and white livery.

Price; range of features; design; good photo output with additional six-ink cartridge; an attractive design and excellent sub ￡100 make this great value for money

Photo printing is slow and very mediocre with "basic" four-ink print cartridge; ADF jams too easily
