Pros & Cons

Pros

The pantum p2502w is quick, fairly quiet, does not eat paper, and the wireless functionality is awesome. I wish it did double sided prints but its speed is so impressive that it's perfect.



Cons

Connecting it wirelessly is a nightmare. The wifi itself is a little clunky because this is a very basic printer. If i wait longer than 15 seconds to try to connect to the wifi the printer goes offline and theres nothing i can do about it.

This is the most fiddling i've had to do with a printer since about 1995. The wireless is unreliable. The printer is dangerously hot. It's very tight and if i try to fit it in all the way, it tends to jam the printer.

The toner cartridges expire after one year after the first use. A replacement pantum cartridge currently costs $63 on amazon and they are not much cheaper on ebay. You will be stuck paying full price for toner.

This is not for most of us a deal-breaker. But sending a six page spreadsheet to the printer was futile. Setting up wifi printing is rather difficult.

Avoid this nonsense like the plague! Avoid this product. That's not actually terrible.
