About this product
The Lexmark Forms 2500+ Series (2591-500) is a wide format dot matrix printer, specifically designed for printing forms and multi-part documents. It offers monochrome output with a black print speed of 55 ppm and a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI. Connectivity is provided via Parallel (IEEE 1284) and USB 2.0. This printer utilizes dot matrix technology, making it suitable for specific industrial or legacy system applications where impact printing is required or preferred.
Our take
If your printing needs involve multi-part forms or continuous paper, the Lexmark Forms 2500+ Series dot matrix printer is a purpose-built machine. The 55 ppm black print speed is quite fast for a dot matrix, which is a definite plus for high-volume form printing. It also boasts a surprisingly high 1200 x 1200 DPI resolution, which is excellent for this technology type. However, dot matrix is a niche technology; it's loud and not suitable for general office document printing. The connectivity options, Parallel and USB 2.0, reflect its specialized nature.
