Color LaserJet Pro M252DW
HP's Pro M252 cut its last two cords in the DW configuration: the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW prints in color over Wi-Fi and duplexes automatically. A mid-2010s small-office color printer that asks for neither a network cable nor single-sided paper habits.
Inside are four 201-family cartridges — CF400A black, CF401A cyan, CF402A magenta, CF403A yellow — with high-yield 201X counterparts (CF400X to CF403X) for color-heavy months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use CF400A toner in the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW?
The correct cartridges for the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW are the standard set (CF400A, CF401A, CF402A, CF403A) or the high-yield set (CF400X, CF401X, CF402X, CF403X). Check the code printed on your current cartridge to confirm.
Is it okay to store the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW itself in a cold garage?
A cold garage is not ideal for the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW — temperature swings and humidity can affect both the printer and any installed CF400A, so keep the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW in a climate-controlled room when possible.
Should I try one compatible cartridge in the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW before switching fully?
That is a sensible approach — run one compatible CF400A through the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW on your typical documents, and if the output meets your standards, the Color LaserJet Pro M252DW will happily run compatibles from then on.
