Hi @HerbF1,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

To download the software for your HP OfficeJet 5255 All-in-One Printer, follow these steps.

 

Go to the HP Support Website:

  • Visit the HP Software and Drivers page.

Enter Your Printer Model:

  • In the search box, type HP OfficeJet 5255 and press Enter.

Select Your Operating System:

  • HP will automatically detect your operating system. If it doesn't, you can select it manually (e.g., Windows 11, Windows 10, macOS).

Download the Full Software and Drivers:

  • Scroll down to the Drivers & Downloads section.
  • Download the HP Smart app or the Full Feature Software and Drivers, depending on your preferences.
  • If you want additional features (e.g., scanning), the full software package is recommended.

Install the Software:

  • Once downloaded, run the installation file and follow the on-screen instructions.
  • Make sure to connect your printer to the PC either through USB or Wi-Fi when prompted during the setup.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
