I don’t print a ton of stuff, but don’t find problems with the amount of pages or any drying out of the product. Lasts me about 6-9 months.

These Lexmark ink cartridges are a joke!!! I’m tired of spending time and money on a Lexmark printer and its ink cartridges that don’t perform they way they should. I have better things to do!!! I threw my Lexmark printer away!!! Best thing I ever did!!! Spend your money on a different printer. You’ll be glad you did.
4 Stars High quality, high cost
I have had my Lexmark X125 printer / copier /fax for several years. I was disgruntled about the cost of ink, so purchased another popular brand printer - and couldn’t return it fast enough. The quality was terrible compared to the Lexmark X125. I use mine a lot, but not for printing pictures. I do print in color, and use the color / black cartridges fairly equally.
My complaint is the cost of the ink cartridges. I did try a ‘remanufactured’ cartridge from Walmart and quickly returned to buy the Lexmark brand; the ink didn’t last anytime at all in the off-brand.
The Lexmark does require proper installation of the cartridges, and I think that’s where some are erring. You have to open the utility on your computer, tell it you’ve installed a hi-yield cartridge, and align to get the proper installation and message. Otherwise, it will continue to tell you you need to replace your cartridge, or that it is ‘low.’
Overall, I am happy with the quality, but unhappy with the price of ink.

I have to agree with everyone here. I’m seriously looking for a new printer as I speak. I’ve complained to the store where I purchased the cartridge, but to no avail. Mine was only a month old before it would no longer print in black.
I beleive LexMark should get this bad publicity in major newspapers around the country. Perhaps then they will do something about thier poor quality product.

TERRIBLE PRODUCT. Extremely inexpensive (compared to other manufacturers products). Does give the output expected as far as quality is concerned. Ink does not last long at all when compared to other ink cartridges. It’s obvious to me that Lexmark is making their money on ink cartridges. I will never buy another Lexmark printer.
