The Lexmark MK521ade printer is a multifunction mono laser printer. Ideal for medium sized-workgroups, it is built with a 1000MHz-Dual-Core Processor that rapidly analyses the data required, and it features a 1024MB memory, so it can deliver high quality prints quickly. Able to deliver up to 44 pages per minute to help the productivity of any workplace, it can provide double-sided printing, and the print resolution reaches 1200 x 1200 dpi. Ethernet connectivity allows you to connect the printer to a wired network, or you can also connect using the USB port to print documents. Energy efficient, it has management features to help reduce power consumption, whether the printer is in sleep mode or active, and its lower fusing temperature and the automatic management of processor cores based on its workload help the device reach ENERGY STAR 2.0 requirements.
Design
Designed with longevity in mind, the MK521ade printer has long-life components, which means infrequent replacement and thus higher output and lower costs. With a time to first page printing of as fast as six seconds, its noise level is 14dB(A) when idle and 56dB(A) when printing. This model weighs in at 20.6kg and its dimensions are 477mm x 489mm x 429.5mm (height x width x depth).
Advantages
The intuitive colour touch screen ensures undertaking tasks is easy, while in-built productivity apps can save time and improve efficiency. The device’s impressive scanner can accurately capture up to 42 images, even with mixed originals, and the innovative font-outlining technology makes even small grey text appear crisp and clear. The processing and memory capacity will give you confidence that complex files with images, small print and charts will look pristine.
Disadvantages
The Lexmark MK521ade printer, while a versatile device, is mono only, so it is not suitable for colour printing.
