Lexmark’s Interact S605 got off to a slightly rocky start, as the driver software included with the printer didn’t work with OS X 10.6 on our Mac, leaving us to search Lexmark’s website for a new version of the software. The printed QuickStart guide di...

Printing costs are about average at 4p per page for black-and-white printing, and 10p for colour pages, when using Lexmark's high-yield cartridges. However, the £200 price tag seems a little steep given its overall performance and quality. It certainly ma...

The Interact S605 is Lexmark’s range-topping inkjet multifunction printer for the home office. Boasting a handy SmartSolutions touch screen and automatic duplexing (double-sided printing), this printer is good for basic printing and offers one-touch access to advanced features such as business card scanning and print presets. However, even with these features its high price tag is a bit hard to accept.The Lexmark Interact S605 inkjet multifunction looks like it's been cheaply made; it doesn'...

The print quality and good solid print, scan, and copy functionality make this a good All-in-One. The wireless networking was easy to set up, but Lexmark obviously has some problems with their interconnectivity. While adding features and Internet conne...
