Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Pantum M29DW-W5M23A: Wireless Duplex Monochrome Laser Printer with Print Copy Scan Functionality & Networking (33PPM) by Joshua Carter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bad printer software

1) The printer prints a test page with a QR code when it is switched on. The QR code leads to a dead URL to install the app program 2) You can find the Pantum Print app in the Apple Store. There is an annual membership fee to use the app, and if you click on features without paying a membership fee, you will get pages of ads. It was a non-starter. I stopped using the app after seeing an advertisement.3) You can print using the USB cable. Downloading drivers from the Internet leads to network setup. It was not possible to set up the network from the LCD keypad. It only works with 2.4GHz WiFi. 5GHz is not supported. There are no error messages indicating this. Trial and error 4) The document scanner scans one page at a time. It is difficult to combine multiple double-sided pages together. You have to feed each one individually. 5) Replacement cartridges cost $83/each from a new egg. Revain does not sell OEM cartridges. Too many issues to be resolved within the next year of ownership. To return. There is no technical support. No mature product line. Maybe at 5.

Pros
  • Original quality with unbeatable printing costs (printer and cartridges): Economical design for separate drum and toner, comes with 1500-page starter toner cartridge and 12000-page drum unit (both pre-installed in the printer). printer)
Cons
  • Requires power socket
