So if Xerox is looking to cut per copy cost AND many of their machines are going to the Lexmark engines why can't they start reducing the expensive EA toner from Webster plant and switch over to the Lexmark Unison toner?
The union in Webster must be way more expensive that making it in terriff free Mexico anyway, right?
If they need the EA toner for legacy machines why not make it in Mexico where the Unison toner is made for Lexmark.
Wouldn't this concept make us more competitive and still make substantial profit?

When is it closing?
@c1 spot on. The subpar Lexmark toner contributes to the subpar Lexmark imaging quality. Legacy Xerox customers are running to our competitors. They are willing to pay premium for the legacy Xerox print quality, solutions and digital services; not willing to pay that for subpar imaging quality, subpar workflow solutions (eg MPS) and reduction in digital services.
Good idea since the Lexmark Image Quality is poor, why use expensive toner?
