A:AnswerNo. The HP Officejet 5255 printer uses the HP 63 or 63XL black and tricolor ink cartridges. The XL ink cartridges are high yield, which can yield up to 2 times more page yield than the regular ink cartridges.
A:AnswerJust make sure you properly turn off the printer with the power button before you unplug it (if you unplug it). The printer shutdown process actually moves the ink cartridges to a special spot and “caps” them off so they are sealed and won’t dry out for at least a year or so.
