Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Lexmark MS720 Series is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a department of 25-75 people that needs sustained mono throughput at 55 ppm.
  • You print 5,000-30,000 pages a month — the 300K duty cycle gives plenty of headroom.
  • You want fast duplex — 34 spm in duplex mode is class-leading at this speed point.
  • You're a wired-network shop — Gigabit Ethernet standard, Wi-Fi requires the optional Marknet accessory.
  • You need long-life consumables for a low total cost of ownership — the MS725dvn is engineered around very long replacement intervals.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 30,000-50,000 pages a month — the 300K duty cycle has headroom but the MS821dn or MS911de is the right step.
  • You can live without a touchscreen — the 2.4-inch color LCD handles supply alerts and basic config; security menus take a while.
  • You need optional input expansion — the MS725dvn takes optional 250 / 550 / 2,200-sheet trays up to ~4,400 total.
  • You're standardizing on the MS720 chassis across multiple departments — same supplies, same operator training.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You need color — this is mono only.
  • You need scan, copy, fax — print-only. There's no MX equivalent in this exact platform; MX722 / MX822 are the related MFPs.
  • You need a touchscreen — operators used to 4.3" e-Task panels will find the 2.4" non-touch LCD slow for security and finishing menus.
  • You need a small footprint — at 17.5 x 16.85 x 20.1 inches and 56 lb, this is bigger than the MS621dn / MS632dwe and likely needs a stand.
  • You print under 5,000 pages a month — overbuilt; an MS531dw or MS632dwe is more sensible.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Lexmark MS720 Series (current shipping config: MS725dvn) is a desktop-class monochrome laser printer for departments of 25-75 people printing 5,000 to 30,000 pages a month. It runs 55 ppm at 1200 x 1200 dpi with first page out as fast as 8 seconds and integrated duplex at 34 spm — about as fast as duplex gets without a separate finisher. Paper handling is 650 sheets standard (550-sheet tray + 100-sheet multipurpose feeder), expandable with optional trays up to 4,400 sheets total. The 2.4-inch color LCD is non-touch. Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 (Type A and Type B) standard, with an internal card slot for accessory add-ons; Wi-Fi requires the optional Marknet card. At 17.5 x 16.85 x 20.1 inches and 56 lb, this is closer to a small-floor unit than a desktop — most installs go on a stand or cabinet. The thing buyers regret: not budgeting for the high-yield consumables. The MS725dvn earns its TCO advantage on extra-long-life imaging units and toner — order the high-yield SKUs from day one, the standard yields don't make economic sense here.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 3 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Lexmark machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • "Been using the MS720 in our small office for about a year now. The print speed is solid and it handles our monthly volume without any issues. Toner cartridges last a reasonable amount of time, which helps with our budget."
  • "Good workhorse printer for a home office setup. The duplex printing saves paper and the network connectivity works fine once you get it configured. My only complaint is the manual is a bit confusing for some of the advanced settings."
  • "We replaced three older printers with the MS720 and consolidated everything into one device. The page yield on the toners is impressive for the price, and it's been reliable for our medium-volume printing needs. Support was helpful when we had initial setup questions."

FAQ

Lexmark MS720 Series, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (616) 800-7682 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Lexmark MS720 Series ships with a starter toner cartridge that yields approximately 15,000 pages. Replacement toner options include the high-yield Lexmark 58D1H00 (15,000 pages) and the ultra-high-yield Lexmark 58D1U00 (up to 55,000 pages).

The Lexmark MS720 Series is a monochrome printer designed for departments of 25-75 people, printing 5,000 to 30,000 pages monthly at 55 ppm, while the Lexmark CS530 Series is a color printer suited for small offices of 5-15 people, printing 800 to 3,500 pages monthly at 35 ppm. The MS720 has a larger paper capacity (up to 4,400 sheets) and a non-touch LCD, whereas the CS530 features a color touchscreen and standard Wi-Fi. For small offices needing color, the CS530 is a better fit, but for higher-volume monochrome printing, the MS720 is ideal.
The Lexmark MS720 Series is suitable for small businesses with moderate to high printing needs, handling 5,000 to 30,000 pages monthly at 55 ppm. However, its monochrome-only output and larger footprint may not be ideal for very small offices. If color printing or space efficiency is a priority, consider stepping up to a commercial option like the Lexmark CS530 Series.
No, the Lexmark MS720 Series is a monochrome-only printer. For color printing, consider alternatives like the Lexmark CS530 Series, Lexmark CX520 Series, or Lexmark CX620 Series.
