The HP Color LaserJet Pro M252 series (M252n and M252dw) is a compact color laser printer for teams of one to five people printing 250 to 2,500 pages a month. It prints up to 19 pages per minute in black and color on letter paper with the first page out in as little as 11.5 seconds, at 600 x 600 dpi.

The M252dw adds automatic duplexing, a 3-inch color touchscreen, Wi-Fi and NFC touch-to-print on top of the USB and Ethernet ports shared across the series. An 800 MHz processor and 256 MB of memory handle everyday office documents, the 150-sheet input tray takes letter and legal paper, and HP rates the duty cycle at 30,000 pages a month.

The M252 series uses the genuine HP 201A and 201X JetIntelligence cartridges. GS Toner stocks the original HP 201A black cartridge, singly or as a 2-pack, with free US shipping.
