Frequently asked questions
- Which ink cartridges fit the HP PageWide XL 4250?
- The HP PageWide XL 4250 takes HP 841/874/876 PageWide XL Maintenance Cartridge, HP 865 500-ml Cyan PageWide XL Ink Cartridge, HP 865 500-ml Magenta PageWide XL Ink Cartridge, HP 865 500-ml Yellow PageWide XL Ink Cartridge, HP 865B 500-ml Yellow PageWide XL Ink Cartridge, HP 874/876 PageWide XL Cleaning Container and HP 886 3-liter White Latex Ink Cartridge. Every cartridge listed on this page comes from the manufacturer's supply listing for this model.
- What roll widths and core sizes does the HP PageWide XL 4250 take?
- It takes rolls 16–42 in wide on 3 in cores. The spindle holds a finished roll up to 177 mm in diameter, which is what separates a 150 ft roll from a 300 ft roll of the same paper.
- Does the HP PageWide XL 4250 use dye or pigment ink?
- The HP PageWide XL 4250 runs aqueous pigment ink. Pigment ink sits on the surface as solid particles, so prints are more water- and fade-resistant than dye — the reason it is the standard for technical and fine-art output.
- What paper can I use in the HP PageWide XL 4250?
- We hold 113 paper and media products verified against this machine, 90 of them at the recommended tier, where compatibility is resolved from the printer's published media handling — roll width, core size, the roll diameter the spindle holds and the coating's rating for this machine's ink. The rest come from the supply list the manufacturer publishes for this machine. Either way a roll only appears here if a source says it fits.
- Do you sell printheads for the HP PageWide XL 4250?
- Yes — 4 genuine printhead products for this model are listed above. If you are not sure which channel has failed, call 980-536-0080 and we will work it out from the machine's error code.
