Lexmark X203A11G Black Return Program Toner Cartridge

Works perfectly for our Lexmark X204N copier/scanner. Easy to replace in copier and to return old cartridge.

After only a few days I had to start shaking the cartridge to avoid the light streaks on the printed documents. I have to shake it every few days, not sure how long it will last but I can't believe it will be anywhere close to the 2500 pages it is suppose to.

I will say honestly that 99% of the time all print cartridges from Quill work just as they are supposed to. Of course every now & then we get a bad apple (a cartridge that is in a new box but is empty of toner). When this happens Quill will send a replacement or give us credit.

So in the end I gave them 5 stars because if my toner is perfect or has an issue they will be there to help me out.

Fast service. Pleased with product

easy to install and last a long time

I use the Lexmark return program toner cartridges because they end up costing less per page than any others, and because I get the return box to send them back rather than trying to find a good place to recycle them, find another box, etc. We have two Lexmark printers, one is a color laser and the other is this one, a multifunction printer. We use the return program cartridges in each one for the same reasons of better cost, more pages per cartridge, and also the ability to recycle and return without a hassle.

The toner does not last long. The copier requires constant maintenance. I will not purchase Lexmark products in the future - too pricey, low value.

I wish the cost could reduce, because more people benefit from a nicer printer than the cheaper versions.

Nice

I noticed that the replacement cartridge didn't print as dark or sharp as the cartridge that came with the printer. However, still, for the price, the printing is fine for the average business user who prints only documents. Anyone needing to print graphics needs to buy another printer. Easy to replace cartridge, easy to return for recycling. Also, the original cartridge did NOT print 2500 pages, but only 1800. I'm waiting to see how my first "bought" cartridge does. Price is decent, not a GREAT deal but okay. The only thing I hate is that you have to feed envelopes one at a time. I didn't pick this printer, my "tech support" guy did, so I have him to blame for that, not Lexmark and since I didn't pay for it, my boss did, I can't complain all that much. All in all, this is the 3rd Lexmark printer I've used in 15 years (and before that, IBM which was bought out or replaced by Lexmark) and I find Lexmark to be better than others.
