 Great printer for wireless printing August 19, 2007
Oleg Moskalensky (Kirkland, Wa USA)

I've always had to buy a wireless printer server to accomplish wireless printing and it was always a pain, sometimes it would work for a while, then quit for who knows what reason, then you redo the configuration and the cycle repeats.
This printer had some bad reviews, but considering built-in wi-fi and the fact that this printer costs less than buying the wireless printer server box (where you'll need a printer to go with that, separately) - I gave it a go.
The quality is ok, totally usable for office, home environments, where you don't need blinding quality. If you're looking for a very sharp, high end, photo-quality color printing - this printer won't do. However, for vast majority of printing tasks - it's more than sufficient. Wireless config and reconfig is a snap with the software that comes with it. I was able to easily reconfigure it to work on various wi-fi networks, including WEP - all very quick and hassle free. The config is typically done via the USB cable, which is also supplied (which is unreal, since most printer s that cost more don't come with one).
Definitely recommend this printer.
 Nice overall, but annoying power saver feature March 31, 2008

One very annoying feature of this printer is the power saver feature. If the printer is not used for 10 or so minutes it goes into power saver mode and you have to press the on switch to get it back out of its "sleep mode". The problem is, it will not accept a network job while its "sleeping". The whole point of buying a network printer was so that the printer could be up in the loft and laptops could print to it. It kind of defeats the purpose if we have to walk upstairs, wake the printer, and then print. I called tech support, and they informed me that the printer just works that way. Nothing can be done.
Still, overall a nice printer. Some wifi "print servers" cost nearly as much as this printer. Why buy two boxes and risk something not working with the other. This thing worked great. You do have to use the USB cable to properly setup the printer and get it onto your network. But, once the printer is setup you can put the cable in a drawer.
The instructions are very good. They cover how to connect the printer with both Windows and Mac. The instructions also show how to connect the printer as a standard USB printer, however, this would defeat the point of buying a Wifi printer.
The printer prints fairly fast, for an inkjet. Some people are tagging this as an "all-in-one" printer. It is not. It does not fax or scan. But then, it never said that it does!

I waited to post a review on this printer. I have had no problems to date.
The installation CD walks you through the set up for your PC, and then I just loaded the CD on addtional laptops.
I first saw this on QVC for a higher price, and once again, Amazon had the lowest price with free shipping.
There is also imaging software included to manage and print photo's.
Would highly reccomend this to any house hold that has a wireless network.
Setup of Z1420 September 16, 2007

I just recently purchased 2 computers; one Mac and one Dell; to add to my existing WiFi network. I had been using an HP all in one and wanted to be able to print with all of my computers on it through the WiFi network. I purchased a Linksys print server and ended up with a day of frustration. The Linksys software crashed both my new Dell and my old computer and it was worthless with respect to the Mac. I ended up returning it for this Lexmark printer. The setup for this printer was flawless. Not only on the PCs, but the Mac as well. Total time was about 20 minutes. I don't know about how the printer will last over time, but I would recommend the folks who don't have WiFi printing as yet (HP and Canon) to copy the ease of setup.
Doesn't support Mac 10.5 Leopard November 23, 2007

Printer works well on Mac 10.4, but I tried installing it on 10.5 first which cost me an hour of frustration and a call to tech support. They told me an update for Mac 10.5 will be available on Jan 19.
One other complaint -- the paper feed is clunky, and sometimes pulls the paper in at a slight angle.
Still, a good printer for basic office stuff, with wi-fi allowing you place the printer anywhere and print from multiple computers.
