How good is the Pantum M6552NW as a mono laser all-in-one printer? It depends a lot on what you want to use it for. When it comes to the basics—printing, scanning, and copying—it's easy to set up and use. Plenty of low-end competitors can beat it on graphics and photo quality, though, including the Brother MFC-L2717DW and the Canon imageClass MF267dw. These alternatives are more expensive, however, making the $169.99 M6552NW the potentially better choice if you mostly print text.
