Is this the right printer for you?

Who the HP DesignJet T250 24-in Printer is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You're a small architect, engineer, or design shop of 1-10 people that needs in-house 24-inch A1/D plots without a floor-standing plotter.
  • You print 20-150 A1 plots a month and want the lowest entry price in the DesignJet line.
  • You want a printer that sits on a desk or bench (39.9 x 17.3 x 11.2 in, 47.4 lb) — no dedicated stand needed.
  • You print a mix of A4/A3 small-format and A1/D large-format and want one machine for both with the optional automatic sheet feeder.
  • You want Wi-Fi standard so the team can print from laptops and phones without running cable.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 150-300 A1 plots a month — the T250 will keep up but you'll be swapping 29-ml HP 712 cartridges more often than ideal; budget for the 80-ml black.
  • You want a stand — it's optional (3C753A), not included.
  • You're replacing an old HP DesignJet 130/T120/T520 — operator workflow is similar, just no front touchscreen here, control is via HP Smart app and driver.
  • You scan and copy occasionally — this is print-only; pair with a flatbed if scan needs are light.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print more than 300 A1 plots a month — the per-page ink cost on 29-ml cartridges gets ugly. Step up to the T650 with 80-ml black support.
  • You need 36-inch (E-size) output — this is 24-inch only. Look at the T630 36-in or T650 36-in.
  • You need built-in scan/copy — there's no scanner on this model. The T830 24-in MFP is the small-shop option.
  • You need PostScript or the Adobe PDF Print Engine — this is HP-GL/2 raster only via the Windows/macOS driver. Step up to the T650 or Z-series.
  • You print line drawings at speed every day — the 30 sec/A1 Fast mode is the slowest in the new T-series; the T650 does the same job in 26 seconds.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The HP DesignJet T250 24-in is the smallest, cheapest plotter HP makes — a 24-inch desktop CAD printer aimed at solo architects, small engineering shops, and university labs that need real A1/D output without committing to a floor-standing unit. Print speed peaks at 76 A1/hr (30 sec/A1 in Fast mode on bond), resolution is up to 2400 x 1200 optimized dpi, and the 4-color HP Bright Office Ink set (CMY dye + pigment K) handles line drawings, GIS maps, and bright office color renders out of the same machine. The footprint is what sells this thing: 39.9 x 17.3 x 11.2 inches and 47.4 lb — it lives on a desk, a bench, or the optional T200/T600 stand. Roll feed handles 11 to 24 inches, sheet feed (with optional auto sheet feeder accessory) handles A4 through A1 manually, and the integrated horizontal cutter trims as it goes. Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n and Wi-Fi Direct are standard, so it drops onto a small office network without IT help. The thing buyers regret: assuming the 29-ml HP 712 cartridges would last longer than they do at 100+ plots a month — order the 80-ml black from day one if you're past the trial-volume stage. No PostScript, no scanner, no front touchscreen on this SKU; if you need any of those, step up to the T650 or T830.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 3 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging HP machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • "Been using this for architectural drawings in my small firm for about 8 months now. The 24-inch width is perfect for our needs and the color accuracy on technical plans is solid. Setup was straightforward and I haven't had any major driver issues."
  • "Good printer overall for my design work, though the ink cartridges get expensive fast if you're printing regularly. Print quality is consistent and the WiFi connectivity works most of the time without fussing with it."
  • "Upgraded from an older plotter and this T250 handles our CAD prints way better. It's quieter than I expected and the media handling is reliable, even with thicker paper stock we sometimes need for presentations."
