Lexmark MX950 Series

The Lexmark MX950 Series (current shipping config: MX953se) is a floor-standing A3 monochrome laser MFP for departments of 30-100 people printing and copying 7,000 to 50,000 pages a month in tabloid, SRA3, and 12x18 sizes. It runs 55 ppm at 1200 x 1200 dpi with first page out at 7.3 seconds (print) / 9.1 seconds (copy) and integrated duplex on print and scan. Paper handling is 700 sheets standard (550-sheet tray + 150-sheet multipurpose feeder), expandable to 4,750 sheets. The 200-sheet single-pass duplex DADF handles mixed-size originals at production-floor speed. The 10.1-inch Lexmark e-Task color touchscreen is the same UI as the CX963se. Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, and 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi standard, with optional Parallel and RS-232C for legacy systems. The thing buyers regret: ordering this when they could use color. If your shop produces color-receptive documents (presentations, marketing, customer-facing) more than a few percent of total volume, the CX963se chassis is the same engine with color — you'll regret going mono after the third quarter.
