Up to 61 Pages Per Minute
When productivity matters, the MS823dn delivers. It can print at up to 61 ppm on A4 paper, while its fast first-page-out time of approximately 4.2 seconds helps minimise waiting for short print jobs.
This combination makes the printer equally capable of handling frequent small jobs and large document batches throughout the working day.
Automatic Duplex Printing
Integrated automatic duplex printing lets the MS823dn print on both sides of the page without manual intervention. Duplex output reaches up to 37 sides per minute on A4, helping businesses reduce paper consumption while producing professional double-sided reports, invoices, manuals and other documents.
Business Network & Direct USB Connectivity
The MS823dn includes Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) for fast integration into wired office networks. This makes it particularly well suited to large workgroups where multiple users need reliable access to a central high-speed printer.
It also features a USB 2.0 Type-B connection plus a convenient front USB 2.0 Type-A port for Direct USB printing.
Please note: Wireless networking is not included as standard. A compatible optional Lexmark Wi-Fi solution may be available separately.
Flexible & Expandable Paper Handling
Out of the box, the Lexmark MS823dn provides a generous 650-sheet standard input capacity, consisting of a 550-sheet main input tray and a 100-sheet multipurpose feeder.
For higher-volume installations, optional paper-handling accessories can increase total input capacity to an impressive 4,400 sheets. This helps reduce interruptions caused by frequent paper replenishment.
The standard output capacity is up to 550 sheets, with optional output and finishing solutions available for more demanding enterprise environments.
High-Capacity Toner for Lower Intervention
The MS823dn supports an extensive range of Lexmark toner capacities, including replacement toner options rated at approximately 7,500, 15,000, 35,000 and up to 55,000 pages, depending on the cartridge selected and regional availability.
The extremely high-yield toner options make the MS823dn particularly attractive for organisations with substantial monthly print volumes, helping reduce cartridge changes and printer downtime.
