M5255
The Lexmark M5255 brings performance to the large-workgroup monochrome printer class with a first page as fast as 4.5 seconds and output up to 55 pages per minute1 . Beyond large-workgroup speed, its 4.3-inch e-Task touch screen features tablet-like interactivity and customizable convenience and productivity apps. Behind the color screen are robust paper handling technology and long-life imaging components that rarely need replacement. Optional finishing adds useful capabilities while thoughtful engineering enhances serviceability. And whether you connect via Ethernet, USB or mobile, Lexmark-exclusive full-spectrum security helps protect your device, your network and your best ideas.
Description
Engineered to last
- Steel frames and a robust paper feeding system that reliably handles diverse media types and sizes support heavy-duty use and a long life in even the harshest environments. Plus, innovations in part replacement and accessibility help you resolve problems quickly.
Fast start + enduring performance
- A first page as fast as 4.5 seconds sets the stage for printing and copying up to 55 ppm1 . And support for large workloads is built in, with recommended monthly page volume as high as 350,000 pages.
Ready to work
- With access to input capacity of up to 4400 sheets, replacement toner cartridges that print up to 45,000 pages2 , long-life imaging unit and a fuser that may never need replacement, you’ll spend more time printing.
Meet the future
- A combination of 1-GHz dual-core processor and 1 GB of memory (upgradeable to 5 GB) has the power to handle demanding tasks right now while providing a secure, upgradeable framework for future advances in product functionality. And Lexmark’s most energy-efficient large-workgroup monochrome products ever are rated EPEAT® Silver and ENERGY STAR® (2.0) certified.
Interact with ease
- With new front-side power button and USB port, 4.3-inch [10-cm] e-Task touch screen to monitor and configure system settings and single-door access to parts and supplies, it’s easier than ever to get things done. Convenient front access to the paper path means you’ll virtually never have to access the rear of the device, allowing placement in or on cabinets. And ADA-compliant trays have push-button sliders and open with one hand, requiring low force and no twisting.
Full-spectrum security
- Lexmark’s comprehensive approach to product security is a design and engineering mandate across our entire product portfolio. Our security features help keep your information safe—in the document, on the device, over the network and at all points in between. That’s why Keypoint Intelligence – Buyers Lab honored Lexmark with a prestigious BLI PaceSetter award for Document Imaging Security3 . And this Lexmark product enables you to be GDPR ready.

Duty Cycle Notes |
“Recommended Monthly Page Volume” is a range of pages that helps customers evaluate Lexmark’s product offerings based on the average number of pages customers plan to print on the device each month. Lexmark recommends that the number of pages per month be within the stated range for optimum device performance, based on factors including: supplies replacement intervals, paper loading intervals, speed, and typical customer usage.
“Maximum Monthly Duty Cycle” is defined as the maximum number of pages a device could deliver in a month using a multishift operation. This metric provides a comparison of robustness in relation to other Lexmark printers and MFPs. |
