Lexmark Announces New Inkjet MFPs with Enterprise Capabilities



This morning, Lexmark announced a new line of MFPs with high-quality color printing and workgroup reliability. The Lexmark OfficeEdge Pro5500 and Pro4000 color MFPs are equipped with business-class features and laser quality at 50 percent of the cost. They are built for fast, professional, heavy-duty color printing and scanning.

The OfficeEdge products are engineered with enterprise-caliber components to deliver the long-lasting, reliable performance of a laser with the color quality and affordability of an inkjet. This new series has laser-based firmware with capabilities such as device management and security controls, adding more value to our small and medium business customers.

“The tremendous business-class capabilities we’ve integrated into our new business inkjets, along with a compelling value proposition, make them viable alternatives for demanding, heavy use workgroups,” said Marty Canning, Lexmark Executive Vice President and President of ISS.

Not only has BERTL given the OfficeEdge Pro5500 a 5-star “Exceptional” rating, but also Marlene Orr, Senior Analyst for printers/A4 MFPs from Buyers Lab, said the Pro5500 has “a number of features and capabilities that set it apart from inkjet competitors, as well as laser models.”
