Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Lexmark CS820 Series is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • Pick this if you print 10,000-25,000 color pages a month and need real production speed.
  • Pick this if 33,000-page black toner yields would seriously reduce your refill cadence.
  • Pick this if you can use the 4,500-sheet input expansion to skip weekly paper loading.
  • Pick this if you already have a separate MFP and just want a fast color print engine.
  • Pick this if your IT team wants embedded apps via the Solutions Framework.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if your real volume is 5,000-10,000 pages — you have growth room.
  • It's fine if you print mostly black at 60 ppm with occasional color jobs.
  • It's fine if you connect via Ethernet and Wi-Fi is optional.
  • It's fine if a 4.3-inch touchscreen is enough — no need for a tablet UI.
  • It's fine if you scan on a dedicated separate MFP.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if you need scan, copy, or fax — the CX820 is the MFP version.
  • Skip this if your monthly volume is under 4,000 pages — get the CS720 instead.
  • Skip this if you need A3 / tabloid — look at the C950 or CX825.
  • Skip this if your office space can't accommodate workgroup-class footprint.
  • Skip this if budget is the dominant constraint.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Lexmark CS820 Series jumps the speed ladder to 60 ppm for both black and color, with first page out at 7 seconds, 1,200 x 1,200 dpi black and 4,800 Color Quality, and a 200,000-page monthly duty cycle (5,000-25,000 recommended). The 1.33 GHz quad-core processor with 1 GB RAM (expandable to 3 GB) handles the load, and toner yields hit 33,000 pages black and 22,000 pages color — these are real high-yield consumables that cut interruptions. Standard input is 650 sheets, expandable to 4,500. Output is 500 sheets with a 100-sheet multipurpose feeder. Connectivity covers USB 2.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and optional Wi-Fi. It's a single-function printer with a 4.3-inch touchscreen and the Lexmark embedded Solutions Framework for custom apps. The catch: this is workgroup-class hardware at workgroup-class pricing. If you're under 5,000 pages a month, you're paying for capacity you'll never use — a CS720 will pencil better. And if you need scan/copy, the CX820 is the MFP version on the same chassis.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

FAQ

Lexmark CS820 Series, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (706) 561-0075 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Lexmark CS820 Series ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter black toner yields up to 33,000 pages, while color cartridges (cyan, magenta, yellow) yield up to 22,000 pages each. Replacement high-yield toner models include Lexmark 72K0X10 (black, 33,000 pages) and 72K0X30 (color, 22,000 pages). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Lexmark CS820 Series is a high-volume workgroup printer with speeds of 60 ppm, a 200,000-page monthly duty cycle, and expandable paper handling up to 4,500 sheets, ideal for larger offices. In contrast, the CS530 Series is a compact desktop printer with 35 ppm speeds, a smaller duty cycle, and standard input of 250 sheets, suited for small offices of 5-15 people. The CS820 also offers higher toner yields (33,000 black, 22,000 color) compared to the CS530's 15,800-page high-yield black cartridge. For small offices with lower volume needs, the CS530 provides better value.
The Lexmark CS820 Series is designed for workgroups with monthly volumes of 5,000-25,000 pages, making it overkill for most small businesses. Its 60 ppm speed and high-yield toner are better suited for larger offices. Small businesses printing under 5,000 pages monthly may find more cost-effective options, such as the Lexmark CS530 Series or other commercial printers.
Yes, the Lexmark CS820 Series is a color laser printer, supporting both black and color printing at 60 ppm. It delivers high-quality color output with 4,800 Color Quality resolution. For businesses needing color printing, this model is a strong choice.
