The Lexmark S 1650 using Lexmark S 1650 Toner was part of Lexmark’s Optra series of laser printers. While this line of printers has since been discontinued, some retailers still sell them online as refurbished or used models. If you think that buying refurbished (or used) is for you, then you might save some money on a decent quality printer (make sure you are comfortable with buying refurbished first, however).

The Lexmark company has been in business ever since is split from IBM in 1991. Now, it is a highly respected company whose customer service and honesty earned them an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Fortune magazine also gave them the honor of #5 as one of the most admired manufacturing companies of computer peripherals.

The Lexmark 1650 is a black and white laser printer using Lexmark S 1650 Toner. It may not fit the needs of every organization with its speed of sixteen pages per minute, but for most small business owners this will more than do the job. But if you print a very high volume or if your success depends on high output, this might not be the best choice for you.

Compared to its speed, this printer has a much better duty cycle. With a duty cycle of sixty-five thousand pages per month, this will fit the needs of most small business. And while it only comes with a three hundred page input tray, this can be expanded to over three thousand pages if you need to print often without worrying so much amount restocking the paper.

The printing quality of this Optra S series is pretty remarkable. Reviewers have reported that for making business graphics for presentations, it had printed cleanly without jagged lines. Its resolution goes up to 1200 DPI (dots per inch), which is great for most documents. In fact, you will likely be using a smaller setting most of the time anyway. It’s also been reported to not jam frequently at all.

The price of the printer itself will now usually come at just under three hundred dollars. This printer used to sell for much more, but as was mentioned earlier it is not in production anymore and most of these printers available online will be refurbished or sometimes used. If you want a professional-grade printer for a decent price and the features are strong enough for your needs, this will be a great deal.

The Lexmark S 1650 Toner Cartridge is still sold at standard prices, however, which is usually still pretty steep. In fact, the toner cost is comparable to the cost of the printer itself (in refurbished form). There are two basic models of toner cartridges: the standard and high-capacity versions. The high capacity version will print more than twice as many pages for much less than twice as much as the standard toner–the high capacity cartridge may be the best deal if you plan to use your printer frequently.

If you want a professional printer that won’t jam and toner that will print professional documents, this printer using Lexmark S 1650 toner might be a good deal for you. Both the Lexmark toner and printer are available online.
