HP LaserJet M1132 MFP: unable to save scan to file

Hi,
I just purchased a new HP LaserJet M1132 MFP. Everything is working fine except when using HP Director. It detects the device and scans. But when I try to save the file on my computer it doesn't succeed. Nothing is saved in the folder. What seems to be the problem?

Hi,
Did you installed the printer using teh original CD?
If so, can you see Mac OS X v10.7 listed as supported on its label?
I assume the CD will not be compatible with 10.7...
If this is the case indeed, go to Applications > HP Laserjet MFP folder (or anything similar) and follow the HP Uninstaller..
After uninstalling the software be sure to remove the printer from Print & Scan if it still exists...
Download and install the latest software for Lion below and check if that may resolve the problem:

Hope that helps,

  • HP Laserjet M1132 MFP on Mac OS 10.7 - No Scanner Detected

    I just installed the HP Laserjet M1132 MFP on my mac mini (mid 2011) with OS X 10.7 (Lion).
    I have the printer working fine with the right driver comming from the installation disk.
    I have also upgraded the firmware to the latest one available for download from there site.
    One thing happen during the installation was that I couldn't finish the installation properly at the time of applying custom settings, the wizard prompted me "You must have administrative right ....", which I have, and when mac OS needs it, he asks for it anyway. The only choice was to cancel, but drivers were installed.
    Then, I launched HP Scan to check the scanner, and I have ... "No scanners availables" !!
    I also run apple software update, but nothing!
    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Trezi!

    Sorry if there are errors of grammar. I'm using google translator because I am Brazilian and I do not write in English,just read.
    I bought my printer M1132 After installing the Lion, and came across the same error message. I managed to solve this issue by enabling the root user and installing the drives by the super user root. When you finish the installation, it did not show the error message described above, and the scannerfunctioned normally for the program "HP Director". The image capture MAC did not work, even the Readiris program that came with the printer. But the point I'm getting now typicallyscan the "HP Director"
    As the root user is disabled by default, you should follow the tutorial below to activate the super user. Log in by root in the Login screen, click "Other User". Then type in the spacereserved for root user and then type your password. Shortlyfollowing section to install the printer driver as usual.
    Steps to enable root user in Lyon:
    From the Apple menu choose System Preferences....
    From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
    Click the lock and authenticate as an administrator account.
    Click Login Options....
    Click the "Edit..." or "Join..." button at the bottom right.
    Click the "Open Directory Utility..." button.
    Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
    Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
    Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
    Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.
    Important notes
    Only the owner of a computer or its designated administrator(s) should have an administrator account or the root password.
    Any user with an administrator account can become the root user or reset the root password.
    A root password should be difficult to guess, containing both numbers and letters within the first eight characters.
    A root user has the ability to access other users' files.
    The root user has the ability to relocate or remove required system files and to introduce new files in locations that are protected from other users.
    I hope it helped!!

  • Laserjet M1132 MFP status offline

    My laserjet M1132 MFP does not print.i tried some tips in the troubleshooting.all does not work.even the doctor scan after it is downloaded it closes automatically without opening.i dont know what is the problem

    Hi , I see that you are experiencing issues printing. I would like to help you. Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation. Make sure the printer is directly connected to the computer by the USB cable and not a USB hub. Try and print a hardware self test on the printer to find out if it is a hardware or software issue.On the control panel, press and hold the Cancel button until the Ready light starts blinking, and then release the button.Did the self test print? Please go through the steps in this document to see if it will help. 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the HP Printer Will Not Print. What operating system are you using?

  • Hp laserjet m1132 mfp can't print from remote desktop

    Hi, i've installed HP LASERJET M1132 MFP in my PC with windows 7 ultimate 32 bit and it works fine. But when i connect using remote dekstop with  our Windows server 2008 r2 64 bit. its not printing. error "test page failed to print , would you like to view the print troubleshooter for assistance?" and it doesnt solved the problem.
    please help

    Thank you for your interest.
    The situation is a bit different than the picture. Windows Server 2008 R2 is available through the WAN. LAN is plugged into the PC-1, PC-2 and Konica Minolta printer. HP LaserJet M1120n MFP is connected via USB to the PC-1. OKI ML 3320 printer is connected via LPT also to the PC-1. PC-1 has access to Konica Minolta printer via the LAN. PC-2 also has access to Konica Minolta printer via the LAN. PC-2 is also available for PC-1 HP and OKI.
    It seems to me that I found the explanation for the printing problems - some of "my" printers are simply not compatible with Windows Server 2008 R2. I found on the net the following information:

  • HP LaserJet M1132 MFP does not print from a remote desktop

    Hi,
    I have a HP LaserJet M1132 MFP (product number CE847A) connected to a PC (MS Windows XP Home Edition + SP3) via USB. There is no problem with the printer. However, when the connection using Remote Desktop (it's set to use local facilities and resources, or in my case, printers, and serial ports) to the server (MS Windows Server 2008 R2), I can not even print a test page from a remote desktop.
    Error message: "Print a test page failed. Do you want to display a tool to solve problems with printing to get help?"
    But it does not lead to nowhere, as expected is access to the internet, and I have not it from a MS Windows Server 2008 R2.
    The same error is for the HP LaserJet M1120n MFP.
    I have installed on my PC other printer - old OKI ML321 (needle) connected to a PC using LPT cable and network printer Konica Minolta 1690MF (in another room). In both of these printers can easily print a test page from a remote desktop.
    Please help me.

    I have installed HP Laserjet M1132 MFP on my MacBook Air. The scanner does work but the printer doesn't. After sending the page to print it shows on the screen that printing is finished but no printed picture goes out. What should I do?

  • HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow over the network!

    Hi,
    My HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow over the network!
    I have connect the printer to a windows XP 32bit SP3 using UBS port. The printer works fine on the local computer but when sharing it over the network it works too slow, for example with print test page it takes about 45 seconds to print and for other documents it takes much longer time.
    I have installed the latest driver form HP website and upgrade the firmware it the latest version.
    It happens on other Windows XP machines as well.
    I connected the printer to my laptop (Windows 7 64bit) and it works fine (No delays over the network) and it seems that this problem have some relations with the windows XP Driver.
    I have used local port trick on remote machines (instead of regular method) like this:
    ''add a local printer;
    'new port'
    'localport'
    \\XPcomputer\HPPrinterName as port name
    but still nothing!
    There is nothing wrong with the network, we use to use a Samsung printer on the same machines over the network with no problem.
    I Really appreciate your HELP!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    BEHZAD_T, how is the printer connected to the network (wireless or Ethernet)? If it is slow wirelessly, I would suggest trying to connect the printer to your router with the Ethernet cord and install it to the networked computer that way.
    Another question is, relatively speaking, how close to your router are the Samsung printer and the HP printer? Depending on the distance (and what stands between the devices) there can be a lag between sending a print job and it being received by the printer.
    Let me know!

  • 2101nw print server (and LaserJet M1132 MFP) – installation problems on Windows 7 (64bit)

    For two years, I've been a happy user of an HP printer (LaserJet M1132 MFP), wirelessly connected to my home network thanks to a HP Wireless G Print Server HP 2101nw.
    A week ago, a new machine came in and – to align operating systems - I had to install Windows 7 (64 bits) also on my laptop (previously we were running Windows XP).
    Then, I went on with the reinstallation of HP software, for the print server and the printer.
    And it was a disaster.
    After the failure of the first installation ("Installazione non riuscita"), I went through a series of attempts of uninstalling and reinstalling, again and again, by various methods. Uselessly. Even Revo Uninstaller did not help.
    Then, looking for information over the web, I read there was a known problem of incompatibility of the print server’s driver with 64-bit environment, and that HP was not going to rewrite it .
    You can imagine my disappointment.
    Now, hopefully, I write in this forum to ask for help. My request is twofold:
    1) I would like to properIy clean up my laptop and remove all that bad installed sw (both of the print server and the printer), so that at least I can successfully reinstall printer software for using it via USB cable.
    For this purpose, can you please give me your suggestions ?
    2) I would like to know: It is true that there is no driver available for use this print server on Windows 7 (64 bit) ?
    I’m asking because I found these pages which seems to give some hope, but I’m not so sure  ... :

    how can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,…"

    It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

  • Preflight keeps saying  "Unable to save the PDF File after post processing"

    I'm at a loss how to overcome this. Spent almost a whole day, together with another person, trying to fix it with no success!
    I use Adobe pro CC on a PC
    I usually receive pdf files from this one client who edits and formats a book in Mac Pages. Up until a few days ago I had no problems converting the client's pdfs into pdf/x3, but the last three versions of the latest file have stumped me.
    Just to test, I first just tried to convert the file (33MB), unchanged, to pdf/x3 using the save as other option - message reads  "the document has been saved, however, it could not be converted according to the selected standard profile: convert to PDF/X. Please use preflight with the profile "Convert to PDF/X" in order to identify those properties of the document which prevent it from being compliant to this profile"
    if I then choose under Profiles - convert to PDF/X3 - it says no problems found, and appears to have saved the file. If I try to save again as a pdf/x3, just to make sure, it then tells me it's not pdf/x3 compliant
    OK - so then I go back to preflight - and choose the standards function - then pdf/x3, then continue with the default colour profile. About halfway through the conversion, at the point of saving the file,  I get the message "unable to save the pdf file after post processing"
    So far I've had no luck figuring out what this is.
    I then choose the option of "verify compliance of ppdf/x3" - message reads "pdf/x3 version key (GTS_PDFXVersion) missing", and "Trapped key not true or false"
    Help!! How can I be sure the file converted / or not?
    kim

    Yes I was/am aware of Preflight's inability to play nicely over cloud technologies in certain cases, especially wrt Standards technologies, this will be partially addressed in an upcoming version of Preflight without saying too much.  But the same thing could theoretically have happened if the file was also located on another local network client or server.  Leaving aside the argument that this may violate the Acrobat User Agreement - since purchasing the software, the user agrees to employ its functionality on a single host system and precludes host-client-based scenarios - this simply is not a supported use, meaning the user may not have expectations that it will work at all, if the applications requirements are not observed.  There do exist server-solutions for Preflight files within networks, but Acrobat and by extension Acrobat Preflight is not one of those solutions, and (still) belongs in the single host-based desktop environment.
    However most (99.9%) functions within Acrobat <-> acrobat.com file exchange are supported, file syncing across multiple devices will soon be supported, but Standards compliance is still admittedly a problem at this point.  Some testing has been done using 3rd party cloud technologies starting with enterprise-based solutions, such as Office 365, and this will continue to ramp up to include other 3rd party products.
    As for the second point, Preflight will usually change the PDF version to be complaint, are you saying that it was unable to do so in this case?  It seems that this error should have popped up during the normal Preflight conversion attempt.  Personally I think solving a workflow problem using the print path is a little bit of a heavy-handed approach, but if helped and the results are acceptable, then that is good.  Since that path is non-existent on a Mac, as one needs to Save as Adobe PDF from the Print dialog's PDF drop-down menu, I am assuming your workflow involved file creation on a Mac, then further processing on Windows using the PDF printer.  I am wondering if a simple resave/Save As... to PDF with overwrite on a Mac, or Preflighting the file using a PDF version compatibility profile before the PDF/X conversion would have helped.  Since there are such a multitude of methods that a PDF can be created, there are also many ways within Acrobat that a user can shape the file to be compatible with the expected workflow, ie, 'many ways to skin a cat', without being morbid.

  • Unable to save or download files, already tried suggested options

    I'm not the most tech-savvy creature on the planet, so bear with me.
    For a while now, I've been unable to save or download files using Firefox. IE isn't working either, but I only initially used IE on this computer to download Firefox anyway. I've tried the [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Unable%20to%20download%20or%20save%20files suggested options].
    I'm not incapable of downloading though - Steam and the Blizzard launcher are still working as always. AVG's updating download, hoever, doesn't appear to work. On occasion, I have been able to download things - VLC Media Player and seldomly an item I attempt to download will successfully be saved. It's so infrequent and unpredictable though, that I can't reliably find out what's allowing me to do so. Needless to say, since my virus and spyware scanners appear to be borked, I'm more than a touch worried and unable to download any suggested alternatives.
    When downloading a file, it will briefly appear in the location I saved it to before vanishing. I ask now because my computer's performance has seriously dropped within the last month or so, and I'm not convinced I'll be able to sort it out while I'm so thoroughly grounded without downloads.
    Thanks in advance.

  • New color laserjet pro mfp m177 will not scan or copy

    Product is new. The problem is that this unit will not scan or copy.  I downloaded the latest drivers, but they would not install completely.  I also ran thru some trouble shooting guides on the HP website, but still it doesn't work.  It tries to make a copy, but it acts like it starts and then stops without completing the function.  It's almost like the scanner mechanism is stuck.  Anyone ever have this problem with a brand new printer?

    Hello , Thanks for posting in the HP Forums, and welcome! I understand you are unable to make a copy or scan on your new HP Color LaserJet Pro M177fw MFP. I'd like to help you with this. Firstly, do you have the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is it in a surge protector or power bar? Even if you have been using a surge protector/power bar all this time and you feel it is not the cause, please connect it to a wall outlet just so we can eliminate the power source as the root cause. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector
    In this document you will see, ISSUE: Problems or issues may arise when an HP LaserJet series printer is connected to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), a power strip, or a surge protector
    ^ This is not limited to Laserjet printers. If the issue persists, I would suggest download and installing the most recent firmware for your unit. You can download the firmware update utility here:HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw Firmware UpdateNote: You will need to connect the printer via USB to update the firmware, as any interruption during the firmware update can cause more issues. If this still does not resolve the issue, please let me know if you are getting some sort of error message on the screen or any blinking lights to indicate what the problem may be. Hope this helps!
