Our Verdict

Pantum P2502W

Canon imageCLASS LBP122dw

The Canon imageCLASS LBP122dw is better than the Pantum P2502W. While the Pantum has a marginally higher page yield, the Canon has many other advantages on its side. The Canon feels better built, prints faster, and has an Ethernet port and a basic LCD status screen.
