If you're about to get Lexmark Z?? model, and have a PCI Mac, be warned: you
will have problems installing the supplied drivers, if you don't have a G3
(or G4) processor card. Using 604 processor the installer would just say
"Need G3 to install" (or something similar) and quit. The only way to
install those drivers on a machine without G3 processor is to install them
on a G3 Mac and copy the files by hand. It is the installer application's
fault, the drivers themselves work very well with 604 processor.
And yes, I would also recommend Lexmark Z25-35 series. I have been using Z34
for some time with my 8500 (first with 604/166 and now with G3/360
processor) and have no problems. And yes, refilling cartridges is indeed
easy, much easier than in HP printers for example...
