Do not buy this machine

Pros: looks good and is fast until it stops. Lexmark phone support was v good they gave me a number so I could return the machine for a full refund. they were also willing to send a replacement machine.

Cons: scanning software defaults are not able to be changed or profiles added meaning any option but the preset can take 3 levels of menu to set for each and every scan. Multi document feeder will only feed documents in very good condition. Sheet of 10x15 cm labels got lost in the machine causing an unclearable paper jam. Supplied installation disk caused a device manager failure to load , download the current version.
