Reviews of the X342N Multifunction Printer

CNET Review
The Good: The network-ready Lexmark X342n handled grayscale and color scans decently, as well as grayscale graphics. Its price is also reasonable for a small workgroup or a home office.
The Bad: The printer's feature menu is frustrating to use; the printer isn't capable of duplexing, and it stumbles when printing tiny text.
The Bottom Line: In a vacuum, the Lexmark X342n looks like a decent all-in-one monochrome laser printer for a small office environment, but ultimately, it loses out to the Dell 1815dn in terms of features and speed.
