Ordering supplies

To order supplies in the U.S., contact Lexmark at 1-800-539-6275 for information about Lexmark Authorized Supplies Dealers in your area. In other countries or regions, visit the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com or contact the place where you bought your printer.

Note: All life estimates for printer supplies assume printing on letter or A4 size plain paper.

Print cartridges

When the 88.yy <color> cartridge low message appears or when you experience faded print, remove the print cartridge. Firmly shake it side-to-side and front-to-back several times to redistribute the toner, then reinsert it and continue printing. Repeat this procedure multiple times until the print remains faded. When the print remains faded replace the print cartridge. Have a new cartridge available when the current one no longer prints satisfactorily.
