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

submitted by AH - 1 year ago
  • A: Can you just plug it in and it will start ? . I need something simple out the box . I need something just to strictly print with nothing else . I won’t be hooking up the printer to anything . Will this work ?

    submitted byJMarie - 10 days ago
  • A: Can you print an index card 3x5

    submitted byD - 1 year 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.

  • 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 - 11 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.

    Worthless Offer from HP. A trouble printer.

    A complicated printer. Does not print in both sides automatically, you should do it by hand. Problems with wireless connection and I never a have a color priting even I put the color ink. Worthless. Cheaper? yes

    If i could rate this printer a 0 stars I would. The worst printer I’ve ever encountered. Don’t waste your money even the sale price doesn’t make it worth it and to think they’re originally charging someone $100 for this crap when it’s not on sale. They need to be in jail

    This is the worst printer I’ve ever had. Setting it up took about 6 hours. It kept failing and crashing and freezing. Tried on the entire family’s phones, computers, laptops and it was just a nightmare. Printed 10 pages beautifully before it started to refuse to connect again and it’s been a problem ever since every time we go to print something. This experience has been so terrible, we’re not buying another HP printer. This is a $110 machine, there’s no reason for it to act like it’s 10 years old. I read other people’s reviews of the same issue and assumed it would be fine for us but it seems like it’s every printer. Everything about this printer is faulty. Don’t waste your time or money buying it.

    Run away, HP is now the worst

    Do not buy this printer, cheap, but really frustrating. I was always an HP buyer, Upper Management has destroyed this company. They force you to buy their ink for 3X the price. Should get quality then right? Nothing but connection issues and frustration. They are now trash, don't be fooled by the low price of this one. Windows 11 doen't connect.

    Dont waste your time

    I genuinely cannot believe how bad this printer is. It disconnects from WiFi constantly for absolutely no reason, like it just decides it’s done being a printer for the day. I’m lucky if it prints 1 out of every 10 attempts, and when it does actually work, it moves at a pace that feels borderline offensive. Printing something as simple as a single page turns into a 10 minute ordeal of reconnecting, restarting, repeat. It has taken something that should be effortless and turned it into one of the most frustrating experiences in my house. At this point, the only thing stopping me from drop kicking it into the street is the fact that I’d have to deal with reconnecting to WiFi again just to print the return label. Avoid at all costs.
