Q: Is this printer an ink jet or laser printer? Can you print on vellum with this printer?

submitted by AH - 7 months ago
  • A: Can you print an index card 3x5

    submitted byD - 5 months ago
  • A: What kind of ink does it use bottle or cartridge?

    submitted byJay - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello and thank you for asking. The HP DeskJet 4255e printer can print on ink jet rated vellum. There’s no guarantee that the printer will print on the vellum you choose or yield satisfactory results since HP can’t test every paper on every printer. You may need to use a carrier sheet to feed the vellum. We have successfully printed on 30 lb. (44 gm2) vellum paper with an HP OfficeJet Pro printer.

    submitted byHP Team - 7 months ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hi AH, thanks for reaching out about HP DeskJet 4255e Wireless All-in-One Color Printer Scanner Copier with Instant Ink and HP+. The HP DeskJet 4255e is an inkjet printer. Printing on Vellum: While inkjet printers can generally print on a variety of paper types, including vellum, there are a few things to consider: Vellum Thickness: If the vellum is too thick, it may cause paper jams. Ink Absorption: Vellum may not absorb ink as well as regular paper, which could result in smudging or bleeding. Printer Compatibility: Some inkjet printers may not be designed to handle the thickness or texture of vellum. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Can I use stencil paper on this printer? Like a thermal printer

submitted by Daved - 3 months ago
  • A: Hello and thank you for asking. The HP DeskJet 4255e printer is an ink jet printer. If you wish to print on stencil paper rated for use with an ink jet printer, and the paper is within the weight range of the printer, then you can use it to print on stencil paper. Please note the DeskJet 4255e printer is not compatible with thermal paper, as it does not use heat to print on such paper. It is also not capable of making an impression on the print, such as for use with carbon paper to make multiple copies, or on most transfer paper.

  • A: Thank you for your question about this HP DeskJet all-in-one inkjet printer! It does not have fax built into it. The HP Smart app has outbound internet fax and there are some apps that handle bidirectional fax through the internet. The OfficeJet Pro series machines all have fax built into those and those require a land line. Target sells those in-store and online.

    This works like 10% of the time. When it does, it is literally the slowest printer on the planet. My husband laughs out loud when I say I’m going to print something because he knows I’ll either be back in five minutes fuming mad or in an hour.
