Advantages

For those who need speedy printing, the Lexmark M5163 laserjet printer is a good choice, as it produces the first page of any print job in an average of 4.4 seconds, and the average printing speed overall is 63 pages a minute. Print resolution is good at 1200 x 1200 dpi, which is the minimum that most users would expect from their office printer. It has a maximum recommended monthly volume of 50,000 sheets, which is more than enough for the average office.

Disadvantages

Lack of Wi-Fi connectivity could be an issue for some using this Lexmark laserjet printer, and there is no ability to print on anything bigger than A4. Copying and scanning are not available, and these functions are usually expected now on the average office printer to give more flexibility and to reduce the amount of equipment needed in the office.
