BLI RECOMMENDATION
A stellar performer throughout testing, the Lexmark MX611dhe
earned ratings of very good or excellent in nearly every aspect of its
evaluation. The legal-size laser printer MFP is built on the Lexmark
embedded Solutions Framework (eSF) platform, which enables organizations to expand functionality with time- and money-saving
software developed by the manufacturer and third parties. Also critical in todays business world is support for mobile printing, while the
customizable Lexmark e-Task interface, with a new flash-enhanced
menu system, makes programming jobs at the control panel easy,
especially for scanning. The unit includes green measures such
as standard automatic duplexing to reduce paper waste and tonersave mode to extend the life of the cartridge, and a high RAM capacity and the 160+-GB hard drive aid in job processing. Whats
more, the Lexmark MX611dhe offers very good overall print quality
and productivity. Although cost per page is higher than average, the
units low purchase price counteracts this, and its many strengths
and strong performance make it a very good value. BLI highly recommends the Lexmark MX611dhe for environments with monthly
print volumes of up to 12,000 impressions.

BuyersLab.com

Test duration: Two months, including a

75,000-impression durability test.
Maximum monthly duty cycle: 150,000 impressions.
Manufacturers recommended monthly volume: 2,000
to 15,000 impressions.
BLIs recommended monthly volume for optimum
performance: Up to 12,000 impressions.
More information on the Lexmark MX611dhe is

ADMINISTRATIVE UTILITIES

VERY GOOD

The embedded web server allows administrators to easily change device

settings and some security protocols; view several types of reports, including
those about usage, consumables, and a list of the programmed shortcuts; and
manage the address book, among many other things. Information on the Links &
Index tab (above) is alphabetized under two headers.

Markvision Enterprise discovers and delivers information on Lexmark and compatible devices. The
fleet management utility takes a roles-based approach to device management, with four main tabs
along the top designed to give administrators and other types of users quick access to the data
and tools they need, and it employs a web search/bookmark model.

A noteworthy feature of Markvision Enterprise is that if a device is set to duplex by

default, the utility will show when that device has been put in simplex modeand can
even be set to bring the device back into compliance automatically. And in the latest version of Markvision Enterprise, administrators can limit or prohibit color usage, even for
scanning. BLI evaluated the utility for a Solutions Test Report and found it to be flexible
and effective.

FEEDBACK TO WORKSTATIONS

EXCELLENT

Status Messenger, the feedback utility, provides pop-up messages for warnings and
errors, including when consumables or paper have been depleted, or if a misfeed has
occurred. Print job completion notification pop-ups arent provided, which is common
among competitive devices. Color changes to the icon on the taskbar also show when
device status has changed.
The list of warnings and errors for pop-ups and icon alerts cant be altered as its preconfigured.

Users can click on the pop-up to access the Error Recovery Guide, which
provides help for the current condition and allows users to search for
information on a variety of topics.
Status Monitor Center provides another place where users can view device and consumables status, paper levels, and information about the maintenance kit and the drum.
Lexmark Printer Home has similar capabilities and provides supplies information on the
Maintenance tab. Both utilities reside on the desktop so users dont have to know the IP
address to access the embedded web server.

Users can obtain device and consumables status via the embedded web
server (above) or Markvision Enterprise. Remaining toner is represented in
an approximate-percent gauge while paper supply is indicated by OK, Low or
Missing. The remaining life of the maintenance kit is displayed in text, with a
precise percent, as is that for the drum.
Administrators can configure email alerts, via the embedded web server or Markvision
Enterprise, to be sent to designated personnel when errors occur. Two lists of recipients
can be maintained.
Programmable via the embedded web server, the unit can be set to beep when a cartridge is low or empty.

EASE OF NETWORK SETUP

VERY GOOD

Physical setup of the unit is straightforward. Due to size and weight concerns, the manufacturer recommends at least two people lift the unit out of the box and place it in the
desired location. Packaging materials arent excessive. The integrated duplex unit and
the network card are preinstalled.
The starter cartridge (rated yield, 7,500 pages) is preinstalled and doesnt require any
protective seals to be removed.
It takes 10 clicks to install the PCL driver, Status Messenger, Status Monitor Center and
ABBYY FineReader Sprint; the user guide is also installed.
During installation, the port is created, the IP address is assigned, and the driver detects
optional accessories, all automatically.

The Remote Install option lets administrators create an installation package and push it
to users PCs one at a time.
One-to-one and one-to-many cloning, which greatly simplifies setup in larger environments, is achieved through the embedded web server and Markvision Enterprise,
respectively. Note that cloning can only be done within the same device family.
Markvision Enterprise and PostScript emulation are available as free downloads on Lexmarks website. Both require separate installations.

PRINT DRIVERS

VERY GOOD

The unit ships with a Lexmark PCL XL Universal Print Driver, which is compatible with
various Windows and Mac operating systems, as well as Linux, UNIX, Citrix MetaFrame,
and Novell. PostScript 3 emulation is available as a download on Lexmarks website.

The PCL driver has a mix of graphics and text that make navigation easy. Users
can select quantity, duplex and orientation on the main screen, but paper size is
found on the second tab.
Graphical changes indicate when specific features such as duplex or quality mode have
been selected.
Any features offered in the driver that have green properties are indicated with a leaf
icon.
Toner-save mode helps extend the life of the cartridge and can contribute to a lower
TCO.

APPLICATIONS COMPATIBILITY

EXCELLENT

No problems were experienced with any of the files used in the applications compatibility tests. Units are tested for compatibility on a Windows 2000 platform with Microsoft
Word 2000, PowerPoint 2000 and Excel 2000, as well as Adobe PageMaker 7.0, Photoshop 6.0 and Acrobat 8.0, using 25 application test files that contain text, graphics,
halftone images, tables, etc. that enable BLI technicians to evaluate memory usage, file
processing, font rendering and grayscale capability.

SCAN FUNCTIONS

VERY GOOD

Users can scan files in color or black to email, network folders via FTP and SMB, the
hard drive or a URL at various resolutions up to 300 dpi at the control panel (600 dpi via
scan profiles). Supported formats include JPEG, regular or secure PDF, TIFF, and XPS.
TWAIN scanning is supported.
Scan to USB is standard. Once the stick is inserted, the main screen of the display
brings up a USB option, from which users can select the same settings as for scan to
email or network folders.
The unit is equipped with a legal-size platen.

Scan profiles allow users to make some image quality selections and adjustments.
While the unit supports LDAP, which means users can quickly find destinations at the
control panel, entering email addresses on the displays QWERTY keypad is easy. The
keys are responsive and of average size, and dedicated keys for @, .com and .org
help greatly. Whats more, users can program shortcuts via the embedded web server
to simplify scanning.
While tested scan speeds in color and black simplex modes are competitive compared
with legal-size monochrome laser/LED printer MFPs in this class, those in both duplex
modes are slower than average.
Scanned JPEG and PDF files are compressed by default.
Optional Lexmark Scan to Network Premium allows users to capture and route files, and
includes advanced imaging, indexing and notification features.

BLIs job stream includes Word documents, Outlook email messages, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint, HTML and Acrobat PDF files, totaling
19 pages. This test simulates the type of traffic a typical device might experience in a real-world, multi-user environment. All of the files
are sent to the device as a group, at which time the stopwatch begins; timing ends when the last page of the last file exits the device. Job
stream efficiency is determined by the percentage of the rated speed at which the device operates when producing real-world jobs. The
closer the rate is to 100%, or if it exceeds 100%, the more efficient the device.

Efficiency is tested using a 10-page black document. BLI obtains the overall efficiency for each mode by averaging the efficiency ratings
(derived by dividing the tested speed of the device by the rated speed and then multiplying by 100) for each run length (1, 5, 10 and 20
sets). The units efficiency was tested using the PCL driver.

COPY PRODUCTIVITY

GOOD

First-copy times from the platen and document feeder are the fastest compared with
legal-size monochrome laser/LED printer MFPs in this class tested to date.
Though running speed when copying sets in 1:1 modes is faster than average, running
speeds in 1:2 and 2:2 modes are among the slowest.

EASE OF USE

VERY GOOD

The unit is equipped with the e-Task interface, a customizable full-color touch-screen display.
Navigation of the new flash-enhanced menu system, along with graphics and text, make
programming jobs a breeze. Users can access toner and drum status on the LCD. The
Help button provides assistanceshould it be requiredlisted by function or in index
form. Several hard keys, including a numeric keypad, and LEDs for status and when the
unit is in sleep mode, are on the control panel, which can be tilted in two angles or sit
flush with the unit.
Adjusting the drawers for different-size paper is simple. Tabs must be pressed to move
the length (not removable) and width (slide in sync) guides, while users unlock the blue
button at the back of a drawer and draw out to accommodate legal-size media. And
with no corner separators, spring-loaded ramps or anything else to make the process
troublesome, loading paper is a snap.
Users must change paper size by moving through the menu on the display.
While clearing misfeeds from the document feeder is simple, doing so when the jam is
accessed in the front requires users to remove the cartridge and, possibly, the drum. A
graphical depiction of the unit and text instructions are brought up automatically; users
can press the Next button to see the ensuing direction.
If the unit is positioned against a wall and a jam happens in either of the rear misfeed
access areas, users will have to turn the unit around to clear them, which could be cumbersome.
Replacing toner is clean. Users simply press the button on the right side of the unit to
open the front cover and then pull out the spent cartridge. Instructions on the display

and packaging provide guidance, should it be required. And with nothing to unlock, the
drum, which is located under the cartridge, is also a breeze to replace.

FEATURE SET

EXCELLENT

The unit is equipped with Lexmark embedded Solutions Framework (eSF), which allows
administrators to download solutions developed by the manufacturer and third parties,
and run the applications on the displaya key selling point. Open architecture enables
organizations to deploy software with far-reaching effects, be they with productivity,
security or document management.
Preinstalled solutions such as Card Copy (captures both sides of an ID card and output
them on a single side of paper) and Forms and Favorites (an archive for frequently used
files) help businesses save time and money.
The unit supports mobile printing from devices that can run applications, including
smartphones and tablets.
Standard automatic duplexing contributes to less paper waste.
Eco-Mode reduces power consumption, according to Lexmark, by turning off the control panels backlight and forcing the unit to go into sleep mode after 1 minute of inactivity.
Quiet Mode reduces noise emissions. BLI found that when the noise level decreased, so
too did print speed.
Selectable from the Utilities menu on the display, Lexmark Coverage Estimator utilizes
an algorithm to count pixels in the composite page and then estimates the percent coverage. When enabled, the tool prints the estimate directly on the document, allowing
users to determine the amount of toner on any given page, even in complex images.
Print from USB is standard and works really well. The port is on the ride side of the front
of the unit, which auto-discovers the stick and allows users to browse folders and view
thumbnails of files (can see all pages and select different ranges to output). JPEG, PDF,
TIFF and XPS files are supported.
The process for building a job that contains more pages than the RADF can hold is
simple. For different page ranges, users can scan pages from the document feeder and/
or the platen, and make image quality setting changesa useful feature that most competitive devices lack.
Standard (1 GB) and maximum (3 GB) RAM capacities are above average and among
the highest, respectively, compared with legal-size monochrome laser/LED printer MFPs
in this class.

Although supplies cost per page is higher than average among competitive devices
tested to date, the unit carries a purchase price thats among the lowest compared with
legal-size monochrome laser/LED printer MFPs in this class. When pricing is combined
with overall performance (notably very good overall print quality and productivity) and an
outstanding feature set (eSF, mobile printing, green measures and the standard 160+GB hard drive), the unit offers very good value.

SUPPORTING TEST DATA

Test Environment: This product was tested in BLIs 10,000-square-foot U.S. test lab, in an environment monitored by
an Extech RH S20 Digital RH/Temperature Recorder and Honeywell Model 61 Seven-Day Temperature/Relative Humidity
Chart Recorder.All products lab tested by BLI are powered by dedicated circuits that are protected by ESP (Electronic
Systems Protection, Inc.) surge protectors to prevent transient power and communication disturbances from impacting
equipment under test.
Test Equipment: BLIs dedicated test network, consisting of Windows 2003 servers, Windows XP workstations,
10/100BaseTX network switches and CAT5 cabling.
Test Duration: Products are tested for two months, a portion of which consists of a durability test during which the
product is run at half of its manufacturer-rated maximum monthly volume, with varying daily test volumes designed to
replicate real-world use over an eight-hour workday. This variable schedule includes a mix of various-size documents,
simplex and duplex modes, and a mix of short, moderate and long run lengths, and on/off cycles, throughout the day.
Tested Configuration: Lexmark MX611dhe base unit.
Test Procedures: The test methods and procedures employed by BLI in its lab testing include BLIs proprietary procedures
and industry-standard test procedures, which include a BLI-developed variation of ASTMs 1318-90 Test Method for
Determination of Productivity using Electrostatic Copy Machines. In addition to a number of proprietary test documents,
BLI uses an industry-standard KATUN test original for evaluating black image quality and test suites from Quality Logic to
evaluate applications compatibility. In addition to a visual observation under a Graphiclite D5000 Standard Viewer, color
print quality is tested using a color test target, which is read using the X-Rite Eye-One/iO Color Spectrophotometer, and
samples are analyzed using the CIE XY Chromaticity Diagram. In addition, density of black and color output is measured
using an X-Rite 500 Series Densitometer. Georgia-Pacific Spectrum Multi-Use 20-lb. bond is used in the tests, 10 percent
of which is recycled paper containing 30 percent post-consumer content. Image quality is tested using Georgia-Pacific
Printing Paper (96 brightness, 22-lb. bond).
