HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP Mystery Wake on LAN

The printer wakes unexpectedly, and unpredictably on the network. I cannot determine what, if anything, is waking it. The printer wakes and goes into calibration without any users on the network and without any print jobs. Mystery wake on LAN.

The HP drivers won't load on my 10.10.x (10.10.1 thru 10.10.4) OSX macbook pro.  The install says the version of OSX isn't supported even thought I've tried 1.5.0 dmg file which is for 10.7 and greater.  I did the math and I believe 10.10.x is greater than any version of 10.7.  I also tried HP Easy Scan and it doesn't even see my scanner.  Printing works fine, but I scan a lot of paper.  Also, I've found that the Mac OSX version of the HP software (when it still worked) creates obscenely large PDF files.  I can get around this by opening Adobe Acrobat Pro and re-saving the file as a reduced file size with the same name.  I can take a 25 MB file HP creates and get it down to about 300KB or so.  I found a way around all this but you won't like it.  I've loaded Parallels (installed windows 7 ultimate 64 bit) and installed the windows client in my parallels image.  The windows client works fine.  Not a solution I prefer, but this is an HP issue not an apple issue .... HP hasn't put out a driver for this printer in the better part of 3.5 years.  Lastly, I'm not hooking up a USB cable to my printer/fax/scanner .... what's the point of having a dhcp network capable printer if I have to hard wire to a PC? I've used HP printers since the mid-'90s, but I guess it's time to find a company that supports OSX.

  • Can't install HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP at notebook HP Pavilion

    I bought new notebook HP Pavilion 13-a051sr with Windows 8.1 (x64) onboard.
    I'm trying to install HP Scan.
    While installing all-in-one HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP using "CM1312series-win7-full-solution-AM-EMEA1-v5.1.exe"  can not get after the dialog window "Locating the printer". Printer could not be found even if I write down printer' IP-address. The latest printer firmware is already installed. Firewall is disabled, antivirus is closed.
    I installed printer without any problems using it IP-address. What can I do in order to install scanner module?

  • Software for HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP is not currently available from the Software Update server.

    I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion, and found that I could no longer print to  my HP CM1312nfi.
    This is usually a problem with HP at every upgrade, but this time, they appear to have offloaded the driver download process to Apple.
    My printer is connected wirelessly through a time capsule by IP address—the physical, not the virtual, e.g: 169.254.xx.xx instead of 10.0.1.x.
    When I try to download the driver by bonjour or IP, I get the following error message:
    Can't install the software for the Hewlett-Packard HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
    Is this truly a Software Update server error, and if so, any clue when it will be resolved?
    I am able to print with the generic driver as of now, but fax and scan capabilites are gone. The add fax dialog  lists no devices.
    Scanning is not supported on my printer model with the Hewlett Packard Print 2.12 driver. Will support be forthcoming, or did Mountain Lion brick my scanner?
    Thanks for your time and attention.

    Of course, once I posted this, I tried again and downloaded the driver without issue.
    My second question still stands, however:

  • Hp color laserjet cm1312nfi mfp misprint

    Good day.
    I have a HP Color Laserjet CM1312nfi MFP, when printing, it prints 2 to 3 pages and then displays cleaning on the lcd display and after it runs through with the cleaning it comes up with the error "Misprint, Press okay to continue" and if you do so it carries on printing the rest of the pages and the quality is 100%. Just annoying that you have to keep getting up and pressing continue on the printer all the time. It does not jam or anything.
    Any suggestions to why the printer is doing this?
    Regards

  • HP Color Laserjet CM1312nfi MFP cannot scan

    Dear HP support,
    I use a MacBook and my printer is an HP Color Laserjet CM1312nfi MFP.  When doing the HP setup assitant I connect the printer to the MacBook with a USB cable but the assistant does not recognize the printer and I cannot carry on with the setup process.  What do I need to do?  My OSX version is 10.10.2
    kind regards.

    Hi,
    Scanning is no longer supported on Yosemite, only printing and faxing are available for the operating system as you may find listed by this chart for the HP Color LaserJet CM1312 MFP Series:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201465#HP
    The HP setup assitant is not a part of the software provided for 10.10, it is intended for older verisons of the OS and therefore it does not work
    You may try the 3rd party Vuescan scanning software which seems to support your scanner with no need for any other driver:

  • Scanning Software for HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP

    Has anybody noticed the difference between download drivers with scanning software and the orginal CD PC Setup scanning software. It seems to me that the downloads of drivers and softwares are only the light version of scanning software whereas; 1. there is no toolbar wh about help to see which version of scanning software is installed. 2. The orginal setup has a full version of scanning software.My xp box died xmas and since 2010 I setup the prnt drvs/scan software and I never though this would be a problem if I had to setup again using the downloads from HP. Thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    The original CD is not intended for Windows 7, however you may download the software for Windows 7 below:

    Be sure to unplug the USB if it is directly connected and uninstall any installed HP Software of the printer from Programs and Features prior installing the software above.
    Hope that helps.

Printer is connected through wi-fi, Windows 8.1 x64. Any ideas?)

    Hi Denis88,
    I see by your post that the printer isn't going into sleep mode.
    I can help you with this issue.
    Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector)
    I would update the printer's firmware if the printer won't go into sleep mode.
    HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw Drivers.
    Select your operating system, click next, click the link for firmware.
    I have provided some information from the manual for the sleep mode that you can check out.

    Hello @ Averus89, 
    Welcome to the HP forum. 
    I understand you have done quite a lot to resolve your M176n and its connection to the ePrint service. 
    I would like to help you with this issue. 
    If the printer is not printing the web services info sheet, or allowing you to add it to HP Connected, I
    would set a manual DNS. 
    I wont go into great detail about setting this up. From your post, I feel you know your way around the printer and your network. If I am mistaken, let me know. I will go into detail. 
    The DNS to try is:
    Primary: 209.244.0.3
    Secondary: 209.244.0.4
    Set the DNS then try printing the web services info page again. 
    Let me know if this helps.

  • HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw - PostScript support?

    Hi,
    I'm looking to purchase a new printer/scanner/copier(/fax is a nice to have, but not mandatory), and I'm deciding between the following models:
    HP LaserJet Pro 100 color MFP M175nw
    HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw
    PostScript support is important for me, and I know that the 175 has this.  However, I'm not sure about the 177, even after digging through several web pages and documents.  Here's what I found:
    - The main specs page for the 177 says that it supports "PCLm".  I'm not familiar with this PCL variant, so I don't know how it compares to PCL5 or PCL6, etc.  I was unable to find more information on "PCLm".
    - The "Software Included" section of Page 2 of the PDF datasheet for the 177 mentions "HP PostScript" driver.  This is the only place where I've seen any potential indication that the 177 supports PostScript.  This section also mentions a "PCLmS" driver.  I could not find any further information on "PCLmS".
    - The  for User Guide the 177 only mentions PostScript in a section that refers to ePrint.  However, it does not imply that the 177 itself supports PostScript.
    - The Product Specifications page (in the Support section of the HP site) for the 177 has a "Printing Specifications" section which lists only "PCL3 GUI" next to "Device languages".
    I'm guessing that the 177 does not support PostScript, but does anyone have any more definitive information?  Also, is there a description of PCLm / PCLmS somewhere?
    Thanks!

  • HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw fax to pc

    I have just bought this printer and want to msend faxes to my pc.  I was told by PC world that it had this function.  So far I cant find it can anyone help.  Many thanks  

    Hi ,  I would be happy to help shed some light on the issue your are having with trying to setup this Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw to receive your faxes on your PC.  I have looked into this further for you, and I'm pretty sure this model doesn't support receiving faxes on your PC. You can double check to make sure I haven't missed it in the  COLOR LASERJET PRO MFP M177 User Guide.
    I did however locate a different model, where in the manual does provide instructions on how to set this feature up but it is a black only printer. Its the LaserJet Pro MFP M225dw (again black only, no colour.) 
    Step 5 (Optional): Configure settings for receiving digital faxes (Windows) The product can save incoming digital faxes to a computer folder. Use the HP Digital Fax Setup Wizard to configure the settings. This feature is available only for Windows. 1. Click Start, and then click Programs. 2. Click HP, click the name of the product, and then click Digital Fax Setup Wizard. 3. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure the settings.  HP also has this feature available on it's HP Officejet Pro 8610/8620/8630 e-All-in-One Printers, which are Colour Inkjets. Some of the commerical products also support this feature but I'm unsure of which ones. I would really suggest contacting HP Shopping for more information on these models.  Hopefully this has answered your questions, and please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.   Thanks,
