Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Lexmark X740 Series is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You need a fast, color multifunction printer for a small office or midsize workgroup with up to 10,000 prints per month.
  • You require automatic duplex printing to reduce paper waste and lower operating costs.
  • You want secure connectivity options like Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and USB with encryption features like IPSec and SNMPv3.
  • You need a printer that can handle high-volume tasks with speeds of 35 pages per minute in both black and color.
  • You prefer a device with expandable paper capacity, starting at 650 sheets and scaling up to 4,300 sheets for busy environments.
  • You value energy efficiency with features like Hibernate Mode and Energy Star qualification to cut power consumption.
  • You need a 7-inch color touch screen for easy navigation and control over print, scan, and copy functions.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You need a reliable color printer but don’t require the highest resolution for professional-grade graphics or photos.
  • You have a small office with moderate printing needs but still want the flexibility of multifunction capabilities.
  • You need basic wireless connectivity but don’t require advanced mobile printing features beyond standard Wi-Fi.
  • You want a printer that can handle occasional high-volume jobs but don’t need the maximum paper capacity expansion.
  • You prefer a workgroup printer but don’t need enterprise-level security or fleet management features.
  • You need a balance between speed and cost but aren’t printing at the upper limit of the 10,000-page monthly duty cycle.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You need a printer for high-resolution graphic design or photography work requiring finer detail than 2400 x 600 dpi.
  • You require a compact, personal printer for home use rather than a workgroup-focused device.
  • You need a printer with specialized media handling for thick cardstock, envelopes, or labels beyond standard office paper.
  • You prioritize ultra-low cost per page and are printing well above the 10,000-page monthly recommendation.
  • You need a printer with advanced cloud integration or mobile printing apps not listed in the connectivity options.
  • You want a single-function printer and don’t need the scanning, copying, or faxing capabilities of this multifunction device.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

Yes. The MFC-L2759DW ships with a high-yield 4,500-page starter toner cartridge, which is roughly 3 to 6 months of toner for a typical small office. Replacement toner is Lexmark TN830XL (high-yield, about 4,500 pages) or TN830 (standard yield, about 1,200 pages). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.

The Lexmark X740 Series is the refreshed version of the MFC-L2750DW with updated firmware, a longer-life drum, and an expanded starter toner yield (4,500 pages versus 3,000). Print speed, automatic 2-sided print and scan, and connectivity are identical. For most small offices the 2759DW is the better long-term value because of the larger included toner.

Yes, for small offices printing under about 2,500 pages per month. It's fast at 36 ppm, handles auto 2-sided print and scan, supports Wi-Fi and Ethernet, and has a 50-page document feeder for multi-page scans. If you regularly print more than 5,000 pages per month or need color, step up to a commercial-grade multifunction printer — see our commercial printer options.

No. The MFC-L2759DW is monochrome (black and white) only. It cannot print color. If you need color, look at the Brother MFC-L3750CDW or a commercial color multifunction printer like the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX or Konica Minolta bizhub series.

Lexmark includes a 1-year limited manufacturer warranty on the MFC-L2759DW when purchased new from an authorized reseller. 1-800 Office Solutions is an authorized Lexmark reseller. Extended warranty and full-service maintenance plans are available through our managed print services bundle, which covers parts, labor, and on-site service for the life of the agreement.

Yes. Free delivery is included on every Lexmark X740 Series order shipped within the continental United States. Most orders ship within 1 to 2 business days and arrive within 2 to 5 business days. Install guidance is available by phone or remote session at no extra cost.
