The Pantum P2502W is a monochrome laser printer designed solely for printing. It is compatible with P211 high-yield cartridges and uses Pantum’s P210 toner cartridge. To print documents on both sides, you must re-insert printed sheets into the input tray as this printer is unable to perform automatic duplex printing. It is compatible with the Pantum Mobile Print & Scan app for Android and the Pantum mobile app for iOS. It also has USB and Wi-Fi connectivity options.
For domestic use
Pantum P2502W is not a good choice for households. It isn’t appropriate for photographs because it can’t print in colour. It is also difficult to set up the printer and utilize its mobile app, and there is no scanner, so you cannot use it to digitize photos or essential papers. Positively, its cost per print is excellent; high-yield alternatives are also available, and its toner cartridges provide a large number of pages.
For office use
Due to its lack of practical capabilities like a scanner and duplex printing, the Pantum P2502W is unsuitable for use in small or home offices. It does, however, function fairly well if you simply need to print papers in black and white; it offers an amazing page yield, quick print times, and an exceptionally low cost per print. Sadly, during lengthy print jobs, its plastic body feels weak and it has a tendency to push sheets out of the output tray as it prints and takes up numerous pages at once. Moreover, it lacks an Ethernet port for connecting to your office network and takes some time to warm up and start printing.
For students
For student use, the Pantum P2502W is an adequate option. It takes a while for it to warm up and start printing, but once it does, it prints really swiftly. In the long term, it’s easy on your wallet because black and white prints have an incredibly low cost per print. This printer isn’t compatible with scanning notes, handouts, or textbooks, so students who need to print colour documents or scan them should go elsewhere.
Black and white printing
The Pantum P2502W prints in black and white with reasonable quality. It produces text documents quickly and at an incredibly low cost per print, while producing printer excellent quantity of pages. Sadly, it requires some time to warm up before printing, and you have to manually re-insert printed pages into the input tray because it isn’t capable of automatic duplex printing. Additionally, this printer lacks a scanner because it is a print-only device.
Photo printing
Photo printing is not a task which is recommended for the Pantum P2502W. It’s a monochrome laser printer that prints monochrome gradients with a lot of noticeable banding and terribly detailed pictures.
