Most printers are made for one of two groups: the power user, typically working out of an office, or the home user, who requires ease and only the most basic of features. That’s as true now as it ever was. However, go back several years and you find a printer by Lexmark that struck an excellent balance between power and ease. And if you can find one, perhaps on an online auction or classified-ad site, it still makes a good buy. We’re talking about the Lexmark Optra T610 using Lexmark Optra t610 toner. With this model, Lexmark proved that a printer can be a powerful printer and yet retain all of the ease of use features that a novice would need.

Need to fit a printer in a small space – or just optimize the space you have? The Lexmark Optra T610 answers that need as well. It has a unique distinctive boxy design, which allows it to fit easily in small spaces, as well as provide ease in carrying it. Setting up this model for use takes only about five minutes; this includes installing the software. And don’t forget about the toner cartridge, it also installs quickly and easily.

As for power, the Lexmark Optra T610 featured a paper tray with capacity for 350 sheets. The printer could also accept three more paper trays, upping the paper capacity to as much as 2,000 sheets. For use at home or at the office, the Lexmark Optra T610 could adapt to any setting without being too complicated or high tech. This also meant it worked well for those whose printers served dual purpose, for home use and home-office use.

Let’s look again at printing speed. This printer typically prints 12 pages per minute, though it can potentially print as many as 15 pages a minute. And the printing is done with few delays. Of course, every printer is going to have the occasional paper jam. However, with this model, it is easy to extract the offending paper, due to the printer’s simple front-opening design.

With a sharp 1200 by 1200 dpi print resolution, the Lexmark Optra T610 was able to print on all different kinds of paper and card stock, even transparencies and envelopes. The print quality made it excellent for office documents and also sufficient for printing graphics and some photos.

The Lexmark Optra T610 was compatible with Macintosh, UniX, oS/2, and Windows 95/98 and Windows NT operating systems, among others. As we move away from these systems and Windows 7 takes over, unfortunately, use for the Lexmark Optra T610 will dwindle. But it will still remain worthwhile and relevant for users with older operating systems.

The power behind the Lexmark Optra T610 happened to be in its Lexmark Optra t610 toner. It used a standard toner cartridge which, on average, produced about 10,000 pages with a life cycle of about 65,000 pages per month.
