Lexmark X546dtn, C546dtn and E462dtn

Three additional laser products introduced today, aimed at providing greater value to higher-usage customers, expand Lexmark's award-winning lineup of laser products:

Both models feature Lexmark's Duo Drawer standard, providing up to 900 sheets of standard input capacity, the most of any color laser printer or color laser MFP priced under $1,000. In addition, for customers who need even more paper capacity, a new optional 550-sheet drawer allows for a maximum capacity of 1,450 sheets. The Lexmark X546dtn and Lexmark C546dtn ship with more toner than their leading competitor, up to 4,000 pages¹ for each color, and the 8,000-page² extra high-yield black toner cartridge means fewer interventions for the customer and helps reduce the cost of ownership by delivering a low cost-per-page.

• Lexmark E462dtn monochrome laser printer: Ideal for small and midsize workgroups, the Lexmark E462dtn aids customers in lowering their output costs while remaining friendly to the environment.

An extra 250-sheet drawer comes standard to maximize input.
