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.

Price
Im so happy i was about to find this printer at such a great price
I decided because the price is so low and because i use it in my business to buy a backup printer
Packaging/appearance
Packaging was horrible and came with a picture of a young girl
Dont forget to follow the directions though there is some packaging on the inside you have to remove but i think thats it
