A:AnswerI have a Deskjet hp 3630. And I only use the black cartridge a lot. Haven't bought a color cartridge in awhile. Mostly I print up things from online. Printer booklet should tell you about this. But I bet that you can only use the black cartridge and be fine. It's an HP!
A:AnswerYes the OfficeJet 5255 uses HP 63 or HP 63XL ink cartridges. The ink came out before the printer did so the graphics on the ink box have not been updated yet.
