Learning about your All-In-One
You can use the Lexmark X5100 Series to do a variety of things. A couple
of important things to note:
• You do not need to attach your All-In-One to a computer to make
copies.
• You do need to attach your All-In-One to a computer to send faxes.
Note: The computer must have an internal modem or be
connected to an external one and the modem must be
connected to a phone line.
• If your All-In-One is attached to a computer, you can use the
operator panel or the All-In-One software to create your projects.
Setting up your All-In-One
Follow the instructions on your All-In-One setup documentation to install
the hardware and software. For setup troubleshooting, see page 46.

Preserving the print cartridges
To ensure the longest life from your print cartridges and optimum
performance from your All-In-One:
• Keep a new print cartridge in its packaging until you are ready to
install it.
• Do not remove a print cartridge from the All-In-One except to
replace, clean, or store it in an airtight container. The print
cartridges will not print correctly if left exposed for an extended
period of time because the ink will dry out.
Lexmark’s All-In-One warranty does not cover repair of failures or damage
caused by a refilled cartridge. Lexmark does not recommend use of refilled
cartridges. Refilling cartridges can affect print quality and cause damage to
the All-In-One. For best results, use Lexmark supplies.
