HP LaserJet P2055x A4 Duplex Network Mono Laser Printer | CE460A

HP LaserJet P2055x Overview and Key Numbers

The HP LaserJet P2055x is the top-specification model of the P2050 series. Specifically, it combines Ethernet and auto duplex. Furthermore, a standard 500-sheet third input tray gives a total input capacity of up to 800 sheets. Specifically, it prints at up to 33 pages per minute (33ppm) on A4, so it handles high-volume shared workloads without interruption. Also, it delivers true 1200 x 1200 dpi output. So every page looks sharp. HP’s own part number for this model is CE460A. So that is the reference when ordering. So that is the reference to use when ordering. So that is the reference to use when ordering.

The P2055x shares the P2055dn’s 600 MHz processor and 128 MB standard memory, expandable to 384 MB via one DIMM slot. Furthermore, the 500-sheet Tray 3 is standard and fitted as supplied — not an optional extra as on other models in the family. Note that the US Letter speed is 35ppm — the 33ppm figure is the correct A4 rating.

HP LaserJet P2055x Paper Capacity and Input

The HP LaserJet P2055x holds up to 800 sheets of paper across three input sources. Specifically, Tray 1 is a 50-sheet tray for envelopes and special media. Furthermore, Tray 2 holds 250 sheets of standard paper. Also, Tray 3 adds a further 500 sheets. So high-volume jobs need far fewer refills. Furthermore, a 150-sheet output bin collects finished pages neatly.

The built-in duplexer handles two-sided printing by itself. Both sides of the page itself — no manual re-feeding required. Also, HP Instant-on Technology delivers the first page in 8 seconds, so even long duplex runs start quickly.

HP LaserJet P2055x Ethernet and Security

The HP LaserJet P2055x connects via both Hi-Speed USB 2.0 and a built-in HP Jetdirect Ethernet print server. So it connects to your network at speed and shares printing with workteams of up to ten users. The web manager allows remote management from any desktop. HP Web Jetadmin manages multiple units.

Also, security features protect your network. These include a firewall, access controls, SNMP, and 802.1X (EAP-TLS, PEAP, LEAP, EAP-FAST). So sensitive print jobs stay secure in open shared spaces.

HP LaserJet P2055x Resolution and Toner

The HP LaserJet P2055x prints at a true 1200 x 1200 dpi. Also, HP FastRes 1200 and HP ProRes 1200 enhance sharpness. REt smooths diagonal lines and curves. Consequently, documents come out crisp and sharp every time. Specifically, it uses the CE505A cartridge (2,300 pages). Also, the CE505X high-capacity cartridge (6,500 pages), both rated to ISO/IEC 19752.

HP LaserJet P2055x vs the P2050 Series

The P2055x (CE460A) is the fully-specified model in the P2050 series. Specifically, the base P2055 (CE456A) is USB-only with manual duplex and 64 MB memory. Meanwhile, the P2055d (CE457A) adds auto duplex but stays USB-only with 64 MB memory. The P2055dn (CE459A) adds Ethernet and steps up to 128 MB memory, while making Tray 3 optional. This model takes all P2055dn features and includes Tray 3 as standard. Consequently, total input reaches 800 sheets, the most in the family.

All four models share the same 33ppm A4 speed, 1200 x 1200 dpi engine, 600 MHz processor, and 50,000-page maximum duty cycle. The P2055x is the right choice when you need maximum paper capacity and network printing and automatic duplex.

HP LaserJet P2055x: Refurbished and Tested In-House

Our own technicians refurbish every unit we sell. We don’t outsource this step. First, we run test prints and check output quality closely. We look for streaking, banding, ghosting, and poor toner adhesion. Next, we check fuser performance, so every page lands square and the toner bonds correctly. We then feed paper from all three trays in turn. We also run the duplex path to confirm reliable two-sided output. We also test all connections. We check consumables and counters for quality.

Afterwards, we reset each unit to factory defaults. So no old settings carry over. So no previous settings carry over to you. Finally, we clean every machine thoroughly, inside and out, and grade it before it ships. For the full picture, you can read more about us.
