WHAT BERTL LIKED
Tested simplex monochrome network-print speed with
the PostScript driver was as fast as 49.4 ppm, closely
matching Lexmark's rated speed of 50 ppm.
Tested simplex monochrome network-print speed with
the PCL6 driver was as fast as 49.0 ppm.
Tested duplex monochrome network-printer
productivity was extremely productive up to 49.9 ppm
with the PostScript driver and 49.6 with PCL6 driver.
Tested simplex color network-print speed with the
PCL6 driver was as fast as 49.4 ppm, closely matching
Lexmark's rated speed of 50 ppm.
Tested simplex color network-print speed with the
PostScript driver was as fast as 45.6 ppm.
Tested duplex color network-printer productivity was
productive at 48.9 ppm with the PostScript driver and
46.7 with PCL6 driver.
Tested First-Page-Out-Time was 8.10 seconds in
monochrome and 10.23 seconds in color.
Fast productivity when printing on legal size paper. The
PCL driver was as fast as 41.73 ppm while the
PostScript driver was just as productive at 40.56 ppm
in simplex mode.
Legal Print productivity in duplex mode was fast as
both drivers were able to print at 40.53 ppm (PCL) and
40.55 ppm (PostScript).
In BERTL’s job stream test the PostScript driver
completed the stream job test in 7 minutes and 50
seconds, running at 49.5 ppm, which translates to an
efficiency rate of 97.55%. Using the PCL6 driver the
efficiency rate was up to 95.99%.
WHAT BERTL WOULD LIKE TO SEE
BERTL was satisfied with the Lexmark X792de Color
Laser MFP's performance in network-printer mode.
