    WILL LEXMARK’S NEW WEB-CONNECTED PRINTERS TAKE-OFF ?
    Lexmark’s new line includes Web-connected printer
    Lexington-based
    printermaker Lexmark International gave details Monday of eight new
    all-in-one inkjet printers, including the industry’s first line of
    Web-connected models, that it will release this fall.Web connectivity
    has become the newest trend in printing with Hewlett-Packard recently
    announcing its first such device. Lexmark’s line will include three,
    all of which connect to the Internet and utilize a 4.3-inch touch
    screen to showcase online items. Users can then print directly from the
    printer’s touch screen, bypassing computers.

    The printers will
    range in price from $199 to $399 and are designed primarily for small
    and medium businesses.The touch screen models also utilize what Lexmark
    calls “SmartSolutions,” which allows users to customize certain tasks
    like faxing a certain group of people, scanning to e-mail templates and
    printing two-sided identification cards.Other new features are separate
    ink tanks, as well as wireless capability on all eight models including
    Wireless-N. The printers also include “eco mode,” which automates
    two-sided printing, as well as a business card scanning feature that
    automatically uploads contact information to address books in
    applications like Microsoft Outlook.The products will begin shipping in
    September.
