Advantages: Easy to use and has a small footprint.

Disadvantages: Cleans itself when it feels like it.

The CP2025n is a great workhorse. One great advantage is that it has native PCL support which means it doesn't have to rely on a host-based printer driver. I find its capacity is closer to 250 sheets compared to its 300 reccomended but this is still plenty. I have printed well over 1000 sheets so far on the cartridge i was supplied. the only minor complaint about this product is that the sheets of paper curled slightly when being printed on. I must stress that this was only when printing full color sheets and they soon flattened out afterwards. I would definately say that the speeds quoted by the manufacturer of mono and colour speeds of 14.2ppm and 11.2ppm are pretty much spot on. i have not had any spooler issues with this machine even after networking up to 3 computers. My ultimate gripe with this printer is its random cleaning cycles, which leave you twiddling your thumbs in anticipation of your print. Apart from that it is a great budget printer and i would reccomend it for casual users but not for offices.

Summary: Great Budget printer whos Posative attributes far exceed its negativities.
