Our Verdict

Pantum P2502W

Brother HL-L2460DW [HL-L2400D, HL-L2405W]

The Pantum P2502W and Brother HL-L2460DW each have their advantages. The Pantum uses cartridges with a higher page yield and delivers superior print quality when left in its default state. However, the Brother feels better built, can output pages much faster, and supports automatic double-sided printing.
