Color LaserJet M252
Color for the individual desk: the Color LaserJet M252 brought mid-2010s color printing down to a compact single-function box. No network frills, no duplex — just color documents for the person sitting in front of it.
Its four toner slots hold the 201A family: CF400A black, CF401A cyan, CF402A magenta, CF403A yellow — or high-yield 201X versions (CF400X–CF403X) when color use runs hot.

Frequently Asked Questions
What toner does the Color LaserJet M252 need?
Only the standard set (CF400A, CF401A, CF402A, CF403A) or the high-yield set (CF400X, CF401X, CF402X, CF403X) fit the Color LaserJet M252; buying by code number is the surest way to avoid a mismatch.
Do I need special software to use the Color LaserJet M252?
The Color LaserJet M252 needs its print driver at minimum; the full software bundle adds scanning and maintenance tools, which matter most if your Color LaserJet M252 is a multifunction model.
How do I know which color cartridge the Color LaserJet M252 needs?
Open the supplies or status screen on the Color LaserJet M252 to see which of the the standard set (CF400A, CF401A, CF402A, CF403A) or the high-yield set (CF400X, CF401X, CF402X, CF403X) cartridges is low, and replace that one alone — the Color LaserJet M252 tracks each color separately.
