Work fast and run economically with the MX521ade, the fax-equipped up-to 46 page-per-minute multifunction product with long-life components.
Energy efficiency
Make every watt count with energy management features that reduce power consumption whether the printer is active or in sleep mode. Lower fusing temperature and automatic management of processor cores based on workload help meet rigorous ENERGY STAR 2.0 requirements. That benefits the planet and your budget.
Get more done
When performance meets simplicity, you get more done. The intuitive 4.3-inch tablet-like Color touch screen makes your tasks easy and is the gateway to built-in productivity apps that save time and improve efficiency. With 46-page-per-minute printing, and a skilled scanner that can accurately capture up to 45 images per minute, even with mixed originals, you'll get what you need in a flash.
The definition of clear text
Some laser printers struggle to print grey text that's easy to read-not the MX520 series. Its innovative font outlining technology makes even the smallest grey text crisp and clear.
Dual-core power
A 1 GHz dual-core processor with 1 GB of standard memory gives you the power to do a combination of faxing, printing, copying, and scanning for maximum productivity. And you can be confident that your complex file with images, charts and small print will look just the way you designed it.
Ready when you are
Robust and reliable, Lexmark multifunction products are built to work anywhere from showroom to warehouse with few interventions. Keep going with long-life components, replacement cartridge yields up to 25,000 pages and a maximum input capacity of 2000 pages.
Full-spectrum security
Lexmark's comprehensive approach to product security is a design and engineering mandate across our entire product portfolio. Our security features help keep your information safe-in the document, on the device, over the network, and at all points in between. That's why Keypoint Intelligence-Buyers Lab honoured Lexmark with a prestigious BLI PaceSetter award for Document Imaging Security. And this Lexmark product enables you to be GDPR ready.
