HP CE860A Color LaserJet 500-Sheet Paper Tray
Genuine HP+500 sheetsOptional trayCP5525 · M750
The HP CE860A Color LaserJet 500-Sheet Paper Tray is the genuine HP optional input tray for the Color LaserJet Enterprise CP5525 series and Color LaserJet Enterprise M750 A3 colour printers, adding one more 500-sheet paper source. It is for offices that want a second paper size or more paper on line without reloading trays all day.
The tray mounts under the printer and is recognised as an extra input tray. A typical setup keeps A4 in one tray and A3 or letterhead in the other, so users choose the paper from the print dialog instead of swapping stacks by hand.
Before you order: HP lists this tray for the Color LaserJet CP5520 series (including the CP5525) and the Color LaserJet Professional CP5220 series, and the M750 datasheet lists it as an optional accessory. It is not for the 700 MFP M775, which has its own feeder options. Check your model before ordering.
What's in the Box

- User guide
- Warranty information
What It Means in Practice
- Adds 500 sheets of 75 g/m² paper, so the printer can run longer between refills.
- Lets you keep two paper sizes or types loaded at the same time and select them from the driver.
- It is a large unit: HP lists 546 × 562 × 132 mm and 11.4 kg, so plan the space under the printer.
- After installation, enable the tray in the printer driver so applications can use it.
What Will Not Work
- It is not the 3 × 500-sheet feeder with stand (CE725A); this unit is a single tray.
- It is not listed for the Color LaserJet 700 MFP M775 or for smaller desktop LaserJet models.
- It does not add duplex, stapling or output capacity; it is an input tray only.
- It will not feed heavy card or envelopes beyond what the printer supports from optional trays.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many of these trays can I add?
The number of optional trays a printer accepts depends on the exact model and base configuration. Send us your model and current setup and we will confirm.
Does it support A3?
The CP5525 and M750 are A3 printers and the optional trays are designed for their paper path. If you need a specific size in this tray, tell us and we will check it against HP documentation before you order.
Will my print driver see it automatically?
On networked printers the driver usually detects new trays. If not, enable the extra tray in the device settings of the driver.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
For busy A3 colour printers, an extra tray is often the cheapest way to cut user interruptions: one tray for daily A4, one for A3 or special paper. If you need more than one extra source, the 3 × 500 feeder with stand may be the better buy. See more genuine options in our
printer accessories range.
✓ Buy it if you run a CP5525 or M750 and want a second paper size or more paper loaded at once.
✕ Skip it if your printer is a 700 MFP M775 or a different LaserJet model, or you need three extra trays plus a stand.
→ Also consider the HP CE725A 3 × 500-sheet paper feeder and stand for the same printers.
