Lexmark T430dn

REVIEW

By M. David Stone

Consider the Lexmark T430dn ($849 direct) as Lexmark's answer to the HP LaserJet 2420dn. Priced $50 less than the HP printer, the T430dn offers a 32-ppm engine compared with the 2420dn's 30–ppm speed, similar performance on our business-applications suite, and matching quality scores for text and photos. It stubs its toe on graphics compared with the HP printer, but makes up for that with an option for higher paper capacity.

Bottom Line

The Lexmark T430dn offers excellent text and generally good performance, but low graphics quality and middling photo quality for a monochrome laser. Paper-handling features include a built-in duplexer, a default 350-sheet input capacity, and options to boost capacity to 1,100 sheets, but nothing beyond that.

Pros

Fast performance. Excellent text quality. Duplexer and Ethernet port included. 350-sheet input capacity, with maximum 1,100 sheets.

Cons

Poor graphics and fair-to-middling photo quality. Paper-handling options a bit limited.
