Editorial note

The HP Officejet 5255 printer stands out for its versatility, offering printing, scanning, copying, and faxing functions, all in a compact device. Its print quality is remarkable, with a maximum resolution of 4800 x 1200 DPI, ensuring clear and precise results for professional documents and images. Additionally, its wireless connectivity makes it easy to print from various mobile devices, providing appreciated flexibility. However, several drawbacks are worth noting. The print speed is relatively slow, with only 10 pages per minute for black prints and 7 pages per minute in color, which may not suit users with high printing needs. Furthermore, the lack of Ethernet/LAN connectivity limits connection options, and the duplex printing mode being manual requires extra effort from the user. Finally, the printer's weight, at 6550 g, can make it difficult to transport for those who need to move it frequently. In summary, the HP Officejet 5255 is a solid choice for light home or office use, offering good value for money thanks to its varied features and print quality. However, users should consider its limitations in terms of speed and connectivity.
