News Releases

Lexmark International, Inc. (NYSE: LXK) today introduced Lexmark's first monochrome laser printer series to combine new, breakthrough printhead technology, an Instant Warm-Up fuser and two-sided printing standard on every model to help customers increase productivity and reduce costs and waste.

The Lexmark E series features an innovative design that incorporates more than 40 new patents and patent applications to make the printers faster, more reliable and more energy-efficient. In addition, the Lexmark E series offers a new Quiet-Mode, which optimizes settings to deliver one of the quietest laser printers in the industry.

The Lexmark E series features industry-first printhead technology that uses a miniature, pivoting mirror to reduce moving parts and increase reliability. To help ensure that the printer is always ready when customers need to print, the Instant Warm-Up fuser technology on the Lexmark E series reduces the time to first print to as fast as 6.5 seconds, even from sleep mode.

All models also support the new Microsoft® Windows Vista^TM platform.

"The Lexmark E series demonstrates Lexmark's commitment to developing innovative technologies that deliver both market-leading performance and environmental benefits to our customers," said Paul Rooke, Lexmark executive vice president and president of its Printing Solutions and Services Division.
