Pantum P2502W Monochrome Laser Printer for Home Office School Student Mobile Wireless Black and White Printing- Small Laserjet

I only use my home printer a few times a year to print out return labels, print holiday card labels, etc. So, my all-in-one inkjet printer was also so frustrating because the ink cartridges would dry up between uses. I tried to removing them when not in use but that didnt work. So, I broke down and bought this printer. I have a MacBook Pro so set up was as easy as me taking the printer out of the box and plugging it into the outlet and into my MacBook. I didnt set up wireless printing or the app because I wont be using it that much to need that. I plugged it into my MacBook and voila! I was able to print immediately. It is so nice and I am so glad that I finally decided to get a black and white laser printer for home. The only negative that I have to say after just a few days is that when I turn it on initially, it does make the lights in the room flicker as it is firing up. My house isnt that old and I dont have this problem with anything else so its definitely this that is causing it. Overall, would recommend. I just printed my holiday card labels in less than 10 seconds!

Two stars because the printer really does make nice copies, but you pay for it in supplies, and frustration with trial and error and literally having to hand hold it for double-sided copies. If youre ok with spending extra time and frustration or dont do any double-sided printing, you might find this printer ok. At this price point (I paid $83 for it), you can find something else cheaper for single-sided printing though. This printer is high-maintenance and created a lot of frustration for me. I had the most difficulty with the duplex printing function, especially regarding the paper tray feed. I also had trouble getting it set up due to incomplete instructions. My computer does not have a CD ROM drive, so perhaps it is easier to set up with that, but I downloaded the driver from the website. Once I downloaded the driver, the setup window did not appear. For anyone who doesnt know that you need to go into your system settings next, or how to do that, you will be stuck at this point. After much frustration, I sheepishly called someone I know to help with this. I personally feel that instructions should be clear enough to be able to do it ourselves. More importantly, for those who are able to get it set up with ease, beware the duplex function!! The biggest frustration regarding this is that the paper tray will not feed the paper back into the printer without you holding it down, juuuust right. The printer runs VERY hot, which causes the paper to curl, which means that it wont lay flat in the paper tray for its 2nd run through the machine. I found it to be a VERY time-consuming ordeal and frustrating. Finally, there is potential for a lot of paper and ink to be wasted - good luck figuring out how to shuffle the papers to get the 2nd side printed on the right page if you are printing more than one page. (Because, of course, there are no instructions on how to do this either... its trial and error, which also amounts to more frustration.) Bottom line, after just one day, I decided to return the printer and have ordered a different one. Save yourself the time, supplies, and frustration.

DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK IF YOU NEED MOBILE PRINTING. IT DOES NOT WORK. AFTER HOURS OF TRYING WITH AMAZON, YOUTUBE, GOOGLE NOTHING. PRINTER CONNECTS TO ANDROID WITH CORRECT IP ADDRESS BUT WILL NOT COMMUNICATE WITH DEVICE TO.PRINT VIA HOTSPOT CONNECTION UGH...

cant get to connect to my network or laptop

Used it to make transparency foils for resin pieces. Works well! No problems so far.

The printer works fast and prints quietly. You have to know that it can only print in black and white. I am very satisfied,

Great printer. I use it to print from my iphone X plus.

Little printer is a work horse, easy setup, recommend it

At the price that this is listed, it is a steal. It comes with an Android app (not sure about iOS) that lets you print documents from your phone. This also has wifi printing which I was surprised by. The initial time to actually start printing is like 15 secs but once it starts printing it is quite fast. Each page comes out approx. 2-3 sec later. Print quality is also quite good.

I really wish I could give this printer a zero. Paper doesnt feed, connection is lost every few seconds and it refuses to print anything. I mean anything. Dont waste your time or money on this. Pay the extra $20 for a printer that works.
