Most Helpful Positive Review

Color Ink Cartridge is Top Of The Line

I mostly use it to print out grocery coupons to help me save money at the checkout. With the difficulties today in job losses, lowered incomes, and rising costs in everything, being able to save money by printing coupons is great. Wish that Staples would lower the cost on both the color ink #83 and the black ink #82 instead of raising the prices, which is not so great.

I am a teacher. I use this ink to print my class newsletters, awards, and reproducibles to use for learning. My own children use for general homework.

I only use it to print one copy, then I make additional copies at school on the machine. However, it is still very expensive. I just cringe when the ink is about to run out knowing I have to spend a big chunk of money to replace. I usually buy in bulk to reduce cost, but sometimes it is hard to find in bulk.

I have a Lexmark printer, therefore, I am locked into buying this ink, as far as I can tell.

I would like to be able to buy ink or replace ink a bit more economically. I like this printer and the ink prints nicely.....it is just pricey on a teacher's budget.

Comments about Lexmark 83 Tri-color Ink Cartridge (18L0042):

Cartridge was easy to install. Did alignment and sample page to clarify printing was legible. Did not print any photos as yet. Printing photo was a problem with the existing cartridge and the reason it was replaced. Have tried using refilled cartridges to save money, but ruined a printer doing that, so there was no saving, only a headache. It may cost a little more to buy new, genuine Lexmark cartridges, but it is worth it in the end. Have used Lexmark cartridges for both black and color and am completely satisfied with both.
