Hi Patrick,

The Lexmark is an o.k. printer. I have a 150c here in my office. I don't use
it that often. I bought the thing when it broke out on the market. If I had
to, I wouldn't buy it again. I could have had a way better printer for the
cost. it's a dual cartridge printer. The software/driver is o.k. It has
voice activation if the printer goes off line or there isn't any paper. It
tells you how much ink is left in your cartridges through a graphic on your
screen. As far as using up ink, it is a total HOG! Although, it does allow
you to control how much ink it will spit out. The replacement cartridges are
around $30.00 - $60.00 (Canadian Funds). They are readily available and
cheapest at your local Walmart in the USA.

Hope that helps.
