Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Xerox B8255H2 is actually for

Most equipment pages just tell you what a device 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 offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a mid‑size office of 20‑50 people who print 70,000‑90,000 pages a month and need a fast, reliable black‑and‑white solution.
  • You need a large paper capacity that can handle long runs without frequent reloads.
  • You rely on RFID card readers for secure document handling or workflow automation.
  • You require an integrated walk‑up fax and email scanning for field reps or on‑site teams.
  • You’re satisfied with a single‑band wireless option if wired Ethernet is available.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 4,000‑6,000 pages a month — it’ll handle the load, though first‑page out is slower than some duplex color machines.
  • You need fast black‑and‑white copy but can do without a stapler or booklet maker.
  • You want wireless via Wi‑Fi or Apple AirPrint but don’t require dual‑band capability.
  • You rely on the 3,140‑sheet capacity for typical use.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print less than 800 pages monthly — the color toner sets are expensive and wear out quickly.
  • You need 11 × 17 (tabloid) paper — this device tops out at legal size.
  • You require an integrated stapler or booklet maker for finishing.
  • You want a monochrome MFP with lower cost per page for mostly grey‑scale documents.
  • You need color impact printing for marketing collateral.
