About ZIP Code 40550

Lexmark International operates under dedicated ZIP code 40550 in Fayette County, Kentucky. The company was formed in 1991 through a leveraged buyout of IBM's printer and typewriter division, taking its name from "lexicon" and "mark" to reflect printers making marks on paper. Headquartered at 740 West New Circle Road in northern Lexington, Lexmark manufactures laser printers, multifunction devices, and enterprise imaging solutions. The USPS assigned this exclusive designation before 2004 to handle the company's substantial corporate correspondence.

The ZIP covers Lexmark's corporate campus near the Georgetown and Meadowthrope neighborhoods, about 1.8 miles north of Downtown Lexington. With over 13,000 employees worldwide and major operations remaining in Kentucky, the company maintains significant mail volume at this location. Xerox acquired Lexmark in July 2025 but retained the Lexington headquarters. Lexington is the valid mailing city for correspondence to this corporate location.
