Lexmark International today announces the availability of the latest member in the growing family of Linea Print Cartridges for use in Hewlett-Packard LaserJet Printers. The Linea Print Cartridge for the HP LaserJet 4000/4050 Series Printers is engineered to match the performance of the HP cartridge for print quality, page yield and reliability. It offers customers a significant cost saving over a cartridge purchased from the original manufacturer. All Linea Print Cartridges come with a 100% Lifetime Satisfaction Guarantee.
Lexmark's Customer Solutions Division manager, Bob Curtin, said: "Since 1995, Lexmark's Linea toner cartridges have successfully provided a better value alternative to HP-branded cartridges. With Linea, the customer receives OEM-matched performance on print quality, page yield, and reliability at less-than-OEM costs. Our newest member of the Linea family, a high yield offering, extends this high-quality, better-value proposition to owners of HP LaserJet 4000/4050 printers."
Business Equipment Research and Test Laboratories (BERTL) recently tested the Lexmark Linea 4000 Print Cartridge against those from HP, Canon and Xerox. "The build quality and overall reliability of the Lexmark cartridges were equal to the Hewlett Packard and Canon cartridges. Xerox's 'It's compatible' line of HP 4000 cartridges were found to be lower quality in terms of both build quality and overall reliability to that of the Lexmark cartridges. The print quality of the Lexmark cartridges were virtually identical to that of the HP and Canon cartridges with all three delivering excellent text and graphics performance," said Mark Nadel, director of Testing at BERTL.

"These results reflect Lexmark's commitment to ensuring that our alternative cartridges meet our customers' demands for print quality, performance and reliability," added Bob Curtin. "The introduction of the Linea Print Cartridge for the HP LaserJet 4000 family will significantly expand our market opportunity beyond the millions of Linea cartridges sold to-date for other HP LaserJet printer models."
