The HP DesignJet T250 24-inch printer is a large-format inkjet printer designed for use in offices and professional work environments. It enables the creation of high-quality color prints up to A1 size (610 x 1897 mm) and supports various media types such as coated paper, plain paper, glossy paper, photo paper, and satin paper. The printing technology is based on Thermal Inkjet, with a maximum print resolution of 2400 x 1200 DPI. This ensures sharp lines and precise color reproduction, especially for technical drawings, architectural plans, or graphic presentations. The print speed is 76 pages per hour (pph) in normal quality for A1 formats, equating to approximately 30 seconds per page.

Applications

The printer is designed for users requiring large formats with high quality, for example in architecture, engineering, graphic design, or technical drawing management. Support for ISO A formats from A1 to A4, as well as custom media formats from 210 x 279 mm to 610 x 1897 mm, offers flexibility for working on different projects. The ability to process media rolls with a diameter up to 10 cm and a weight up to 4.1 kg extends the application range for continuous printing tasks.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The printer features a 512 MB memory capacity, sufficient to buffer print jobs and support processing of complex file formats such as PDF, JPEG, TIFF, DWF, and HP-GL/2. The page description languages include JPEG and URF, enhancing compatibility with various printing systems and software solutions. The integrated HP Click printing solution enables simplified operation and realistic print preview, saving time during print job preparation.

Technology Explained Simply

The print heads are integrated into a single module covering the colors black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. This module is referred to as the print head and is responsible for color and line precision. The Thermal Inkjet technology works by heating the ink, which produces small droplets deposited onto the paper. The print resolution of 2400 x 1200 DPI ensures high detail accuracy, especially for fine lines and hatching. The print speed of 76 pph (A1) is considered efficient for a large-format printer in the business segment.

Compatibility and Accessories

The printer is designed for use with HP 712 ink cartridges. The print heads are equipped with a chip that blocks the use of cartridges with non-HP chips. This is achieved through HP dynamic security, with firmware updates maintaining the effectiveness of this measure. Reused HP chips allow the use of remanufactured, refilled, or recycled cartridges. The printing functions include HP ePrint, enabling remote control and monitoring of the device.

Installation and Mounting

The printer is delivered with a print head, a spindle, starter ink cartridges, a quick start guide, an installation poster, and a power cable. Installation is performed using the included software, including the HP Click App for Windows and macOS, the HP Click Driver for Windows 11, and the HP App for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. Setup is done via USB, Ethernet, or WLAN, with network capability provided by Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbit/s) and WLAN (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n). The Wi-Fi Direct function enables direct printing without a router, and Apple AirPrint supports mobile printing from iOS devices.

Operational Advantages

The printer features a compact design with a width of 1013 mm, depth of 440 mm, and height of 285 mm. The weight is 21.5 kg, making it suitable for office use. Power supply is 100–240 V AC at 50/60 Hz. Power consumption is 35 W in standard operation, 2.1 W in sleep mode, and 0.2 W in standby mode. Operating temperature ranges from 5 to 40 °C, with relative humidity during operation between 20 and 80 %. The operating altitude is up to 3000 m. Certification is according to Class B requirements, including USA (FCC), Canada (ICES), EU (EMC/RED), Australia (ACMA), New Zealand (RSM), China (CCC), Japan (VCCI), and Korea (KCC). The device is certified ENERGY STAR and meets sustainability requirements, including the use of at least 40 % recycled plastic and recycled metal. The packaging consists of fiber materials, reducing plastic consumption by more than 70 %. The printing functions are compatible with Windows and Mac operating systems.

Product Color and Design

The printer is finished in Gray and features a modern, compact design suitable for office environments. The surface is robust and designed for daily use. Operation is performed via HP software solutions, as no built-in display is provided. Print quality is supported by HP Bright Office inks, which enable a color gamut up to 34 % larger and produce more precise lines.

Security and Sustainability

HP Wolf Essential Security protects the device from cyber threats. Firmware updates ensure that security features remain up to date. Sustainability certifications include UL ECOLOGO®, EPEAT Gold, and EPEAT Climate+, highlighting the environmental compatibility of the device. The automatic power-on and power-off scheduling can save up to 65 % energy, depending on usage patterns.
