Professional A3 colour laser printer

The HP Color LaserJet CP5225dn prints up to 20 pages per minute in colour and black with automatic duplexing. It supports media sizes up to 11 x 17 inches so offices can produce wide-format documents in-house. A 350-sheet standard input capacity handles daily workloads, while the 2-line backlit display keeps status visible.

Network-ready with USB and Ethernet

Connectivity is provided by USB and Ethernet ports for direct or shared network printing. The printer accepts HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5 and HP postscript level 3 emulation for broad driver compatibility. Standard paper trays total two, expandable to three, letting administrators add capacity without replacing the device.

Sustained output up to 75,000 pages monthly

A maximum duty cycle of 75,000 pages per month supports heavy recurring demand. The manufacturer recommends a monthly volume between 1,500 and 5,000 pages for consistent reliability. First-page-out times of 16 seconds for black and 17 seconds for colour keep queues moving during peak periods. Compatible cartridges are CE740A, CE741A, CE742A and CE743A.

Questions about this item

How many pages can the 350-sheet input hold before I need to reload during a long print run?

The standard trays hold 350 sheets; an optional third tray can be added to increase total capacity.

What are the typical operating sound level and power draw when the CP5225dn runs continuously?

HP rates the printer at 20 ppm colour and mono with a 75,000-page monthly duty cycle; sustained loads stay within that design envelope.

Which toner cartridges must I have on hand before the CE712A will print?

Four cartridges are required: CE740A black, CE741A cyan, CE742A yellow and CE743A magenta.
