While Lexmark printers seem like they’ve been around for ages in fact they weren’t created until 1991. The company was originally a subsidiary of IBM. They offered Lexmark for public sale in 1994 and the company took off after that. It’s become one of the biggest sellers of printers in the world.

Lexmark is a recognizable brand name. What’s less commonly known though is that the company is a major printer producer for other computer companies.  For instance Lexmark makes Dell printers. Their primary business model is of a third party manufacturer rather than as a direct sales company.

Lexmark has always been a leader in innovation. They produced the first inkjet printer that was available for under $100 and built the first production stand alone photo quality printer.

Lexmark has a wide product range from ink jet printers to more commercial grade toner based systems. It even offers dot matrix and photo reproduction options. A Lexmark printer can be scaled to fit any home or business need. You can go from the smallest single page printer up to commercial all in one machines.

Lexmark is truly a world wide company with offices in major developed countries and roughly 13,000 employees. It’s based out of Lexington Kentucky.  With the level of sales Lexmark generates it’s a Fortune 500 company.

Printers have come a long way from the lowly single function tractor feed dot matrix job that took up an entire corner of a room. Now any home can turn into a small office for under $500. Lexmark is one of the companies leading the way in this evolution. Their printer lines can fit any home or personal need. This is a company that’s come a long way from when it was just a research and development project at IBM. If you’re looking for a printer then Lexmark probably has a product suited for you.
