THE SHORT ANSWER

Our take

Lexmark identifies part 3001389 as the X544dn, a color laser multifunction device with copying, fax, color and network scanning, and printing. Its rated Letter output reaches 25 pages per minute, while Lexmark's recommended monthly range is 800 to 3,000 pages. Integrated duplex is listed as standard, and Ethernet plus USB are standard ports. The exact dn configuration is important: nearby X544 variants have different networking or options. Lexmark marks the model discontinued, so documentation describes its original design, not the condition or support status of a used unit.

Consider it for

A small wired office that needs color fax and document handling, automatic two-sided output, and a modest published workload range..

Look elsewhere if

Choose another model if built-in Wi-Fi, a higher recommended monthly ceiling, a compact desktop footprint, or a current-generation product is essential.

Pros & cons

What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.

What works in its favor

  • Lexmark lists copy, scan, fax and color printing on the exact X544dn part.
  • Integrated duplex is standard rather than an optional add-on.
  • The documented 800–3,000 page range gives a usable routine-volume reference.

What to weigh up

  • The exact X544dn has Ethernet and USB but no standard built-in Wi-Fi.
  • The unit is discontinued, so condition, parts and supply availability need separate checking.
  • The 3,000-page recommended ceiling is modest beside larger office MFPs.

Full review: how the features affect your choice

What the features mean for you

A single device handles color and fax work

Lexmark's specification lists color printing, color copying, color faxing, color scanning and network scanning for the X544dn. That function set can consolidate office forms and scanned color documents while keeping fax available in the same machine. It is more than a printer-only configuration, so a buyer who only produces pages may prefer a simpler device. The exact X544dn is a color laser MFP; do not use a generic X544 family photo to establish which suffix or optional equipment a seller is offering.

Integrated duplex reduces manual page handling

Lexmark lists integrated two-sided printing on this part. Automatic page turning can simplify recurring reports and forms that need printing on both sides. That does not mean the document feeder captures both sides of originals: the source separately describes a reversing ADF, so feeder functions should be checked for the specific scan task. Verify that the duplex path operates on the offered machine, since a specification cannot show wear, jams or maintenance history. A print-only competitor may be a better fit if the copy and scan workflow is unnecessary.

Ethernet is the documented shared connection

The standard ports include 10/100 Ethernet and USB. Ethernet supports a fixed office queue, while USB can suit a directly attached workstation. Lexmark lists wireless as an optional network-server accessory, not as standard built-in Wi-Fi. If wireless placement is a must, ask for the exact option and verify that it is installed and compatible rather than treating the dn suffix as proof. The model is discontinued, so check the computer environment and available support before depending on a legacy network setup.

Use the recommended range for routine workload

Lexmark recommends 800 to 3,000 pages each month for the X544dn. This range is more useful for routine planning than the separate maximum duty cycle, which should not be interpreted as the normal workload target. A buyer near the upper end should consider how color jobs, copy tasks and scan traffic share the office machine. The exact page does not promise supply cost or uptime. Compare a higher-ceiling model if expected use regularly exceeds the recommendation, and assess a used unit independently.

Keep the dn identity separate from sibling versions

Lexmark associates part 3001389 with the X544dn and notes that suffixes encode different options. The X544n is not the same configuration, and other X54x models may differ in fax, duplex, wireless or included features. Match the label and part number before relying on this profile. The article does not claim that an old marketplace listing currently exists or that a particular machine has toner, a working ADF or a clean print path. Request a sample page and confirm each function on the actual offer.

Compare for your needs

Consider a newer color MFP for current support or a model with built-in Wi-Fi; choose a printer-only device if scanning and fax are unnecessary.
