HP Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP

Why does my computer recognize my HP Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP as Universal Printing PLC6? And how can I install the HP Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP if it s not on any list, I don't have disc and is recognized as the wrong MF printer?

Hi ballard,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I understand the printer name is showing the Universal Printing PLC6 driver and not the Laserjet M1536.
I will be happy to help you.
During the install it pulled the Universal driver instead of the Laserjet driver.
Did you download and install the drivers?
Here is the URL for the drivers if you haven't already installed them.
HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer Drivers. Select the operating system and click next.
Click on Driver - Product Installation Software and download the drivers.
Delete the PCL driver and install the download.
We can see if we can update the driver through the device manager if the full software was already installed from the download to get the right driver installed.
How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
Click on View and select show hidden devices.
Look for the printer entry and right click and select update the driver.

Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP says memory low and will not print

Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP says memory low and will not print. Have tried hard disconnect and restart. Error persists.

Hey , Welcome to the HP Support Forum. I hope you enjoy your experience here. I see that you're encountering the memory is low error status on your LaserJet Pro 1536dnf MFP. I would like to help. For this particular error, I have found the NVRAM Initialization type of reset to be beneficial in restoring functionality. Note that completing this step will reset your printer's wireless configuration, ePrint address, and other customized printer settings. If you have created a custom @hpeprint.com address it will be permanently erased. For more information on custom ePrint addresses, click here. As HP does not typically make the steps for this type of reset available publicly, I will private message you the instructions you need. Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post. If I have helped you resolve the issue, feel free to give me a virtual high-five by clicking the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and clicking to accept this solution. Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum. Have a great day!

How to print envelopes hp laser jet pro mfp m225dw

Can you please advise as to how I can print invitation style (4 3/8 x 5 2/4) envelopes on the Laser Jet Pro MFP M225dw? Also, if my template is set up for a horizontal mail merge configuration, how should the envelope be inserted into the printer?

Hey @Shaggs,
I would like to assist you today with printing on envelopes with your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M225dw.
Please refer to the document below for step by step instructions on how to load envelopes in your printers paper tray:
Loading Plain Paper and Envelopes
Once you have your envelope loaded properly, open up the program that you want to print envelopes from. Because Word seems to be the standard program that people print envelopes from I'm going to provide you with the envelope printing instructions for that specific program. Should these steps not work for you, be sure to respond to this post with your Operating System and the program that you're printing from.
What's my OS?
How to Print Envelopes from Word:
1. Open Word and click on Mailings at the top
2. Select 'Envelopes' from the top left hand side
3. An Envelopes and Labels page should now open. Enter your Delivery and Return Addresses.
4. Select 'Options' on the bottom right hand side.
5. Under the 'Envelope Options' tab ensure that your Envelope size is appropriately selected.
6. Select the 'Printing Options' tab at the top. You now need to select the appropriate Feed Method for your product.
7. Make sure that you choose the 'Face up' option.
8. Also ensure that 'Clockwise Rotation' is not selected.
9. Hit 'OK' and 'print'
Here is a video for additional instruction:
Please respond to the this post with the result of your envelope printing. Thanks for reaching out to the HP Support Forums. Good luck!

I just bought a laser jet M1217 MFP and I wasn't able to enable the web services

Hi Aloolaab,
I understand that you're trying to enable web services on your printer. I would try the steps below.
1. Open an internet browser type printer's IP address.
2. Should bring you to the printer's status page.
3. Select networking tab at the top.
4. Left hand side select Network Identification.
5. Under DNS address Configuration select Manual DNS Server.
6. For Preferred enter 8.8.8.8
7. For Alternate enter 8.8.4.4
8. Select apply. You might get a warning saying this could interrupt connection that's fine.
9. Turn printer off for about 30 seconds then try again.

Hello Kaushik9
The product you have is a commercial printer. I suggest posting in the HP Business Support forum for a better chance at finding an answer.
You may find the Commercial Laserjet board here.

Fix for hp laser jet CM1312nfi MFP printer and OS X 10.10.2

My HP CM1312nfi MFP laser jet printer, with the latest driver 1.5.0, will only print with my iMac OS X 10.10.2, I cannot scan at all, even with image capture the scanner does not work or show up. My wife's Mac Book is running 10.9.5 and printer driver 1.4.1, she can scan with hp scan but only with the flat bed scan not the tray feeder. I can't find a download for the older driver to try that.
Very frustrating to have a perfectly good HP MFP printer that seems to no longer be supported by the manufacturer!!! The printer is working fine with the PCs in the house.
Does anyone have a fix for this?

Hi ShlomiL,
Thank you for your answer.
I'm aware of the download you pointed out, but my question was different.
I asked why the new version provided to Apple from HP (and from Apple to the customers) won't work as intended anymore. Until few days ago, all I had to do was plugging in the USB cable and my Mac would install all the required software, without all the additional packages I would not like to have.
I wanted to contact Apple but the software is made by HP, so I thought HP should know about compatibility issues. I know this is a community board but I wouldn't know how to get in touch with the Mac software makers.
If the issue won't be risolved I might just try and install the package from this website, but that would not be a fix for a problem recently introduced and that I thought I'd point out.
Thanks again,
Mario

Laser Jet Pro MFP M127fn

I downloaded windows 10 and now my laser Jet Pro does not workcan you please help me with thisMargie

Hey , Welcome to the HP Support Forum. I see that your HP LaserJet Pro MFP 127fn has ceased working from PC since performing a Windows 10 update. I would like to help you with this. My guess is that this loss of functionality can be attributed to the fact that no Windows 10 driver has been released for your 127fn. Having said that, I have had some success in reloading Windows 8.1 printer drivers on 10 setups. I recommend you try the following steps: Press the Windows key + r and type control panel in the box that pops up. Press Enter. Click on the Devices and Printers folder. If you see your 127fn in there, right-click on it and remove/delete the printer. Go back to the Control Panel. Click on the Programs and Features Folder (might appear as Apps and Features). Look for your printer's software and uninstall it. Once that's completed click here and install the 8.1-friendly driver for your printer. Follow the usual prompts to complete the setup. Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post. If I have helped you resolve the issue and you liked this post, feel free to give me virtual props by clicking on the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and clicking to accept this solution.

Lost my ability to scan after update...Hp laser jet cm1312nfi MFP

lost my ability to scan after update...Hp laser jet cm1312nfi MFP

The scanner should work using Image Capture, have you checked to see if the device is seen when you launch Image Capture. It is possible the device is simply hidden and you cannot see it.
If you cannot see it then use the Reset Printing System feature.
Finally if you still have no luck then you may have to pay for a scanning app, VueScan is highly recommended and can be found by clicking VueScan

HP LAser Jet Pro MFP M127fw not Receiving Auto FAX

I Own two HP All-in-Ones. First is an Officejet 7500A and second is an HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw. I hooked my Phone line to the 7500 and was able to send and receive FAX's, but no matter what I did (Including setting it to Automatically Receive FAXes), it would only receive faxes if I Manually hit the "Accept FAX" notification when the FAX Line rings. IThis means I have to make a mad Dash to the Office anytime the FAX Line Rings.... So, I purchased a new All-In-One (HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw) hoping it would solve the problem. Once again, I set it to Auto Receive and it will only Manually Receive. The Mad dash Continues... Some Notes:Yes, the phone line is set up in the correct plug-in.Yes, it will receive FAXes, but only if i Manually receiveYes, I have the FAX in AUTOMATICALLY RECEIVE ModeYes, it is set to receive in One Ring Help please

Laser Jet Pro MFP M476nw printing lines of nonsense until it runs out of paper

I have a Color LaserJet Pro MFP M476nw, and it has begun printing out pages of nonsense symbols until it runs out of paper. This is particularly bad when I print from a website, sometimes from emails, etc., and it is wasting tons of paper. I am extremely dissatisifed with this printer, and it is not even a year old yet. I have tried turning it off and then restarting it, but the problem comes back. Is this normal for this particular all-in-one? I bought it instead of a Brother, which I had last, and expected better for my money.

If the output is repeatable (i.e. exactly the same when reprinting the same document, using the same driver, to the same device), then it is likely that it is caused by a driver (or driver settings) fault.
There may be a more up-to-date driver available, or (depending on the printer model) you may perhaps be able to switch to a driver using a different Page Description Language (i.e. PCL5 or PostScript or PCL6 (the 'marketting' name for the PCL XL PDL), depending on which you are currently using).
If the error(s) is/are random, they are much more likely to be the result of intermittent corruptions of the generated print stream between the workstation and the device (check cables, ports, switches, etc.); it could also possibly be an intermittent problem with the printer itself.

Laser Jet 1536dnf fatal error message while installing driver

HP Laserjet 1536dnf
Windows 8.1 64-bit
Got the printer a month ago and originally had no problems installing the full package software using the cd that was provided. The printer part worked great. I had to uninstall the software because the scanner on the 1536dnf was not being recognized by any programs on my laptop.
Now, I'm having problems re-installing the full package software on my windows 8.1 64 bit using the product's cd that came in the box. After the installer recognizes the printer is connected through wired network connection (not using USB cable) it attempts to install the software and gives me an error " Fatal error occurred preventing product use." No error code. It forces me to hit the cancel button and uninstalls all the files.
I have tried the following: uninstalling the 1536dnf software from the laptop, restarted my computer, updated my Adobe flash to the current version (not sure why but one of the forums on here mentioned it). I have also tried to install the online full package with the same error result.
I used the same CD with another laptop that had win 7 and it installed the software without any problems, so I don't think there is anything wrong with the CD.
Can anyone help me?
Regards,
Julian

Hi @foolishdrone3 ,
I understand that you are getting a fatal error installing the printer over the wired network on Windows 8.1.
I would like to help you out with this issue today.
I would use the latest drivers for the installation, that you downloaded from HP.
I have provided a document with some steps to try to see if that will resolve the issue.
A 'Fatal Error' (MSI error) Displays on the Computer During HP Software Installation in Windows.
Find the error code in Windows 8:
Right-click the lower left corner of the screen, and then click Event Viewer. The Event Viewer opens.
In the Event Viewer pane (on the left), click the arrow next to Windows Logs.
Under Windows Logs, click Application. The Event Viewer results display in the middle pane.
In the Source column, find the most recent Error entry from HP, and then click the error entry. The error details display in the General tab.
In the General tab, look for a numbered code. This is the specific error message that you need for troubleshooting. Note the error code, and then continue to the next step.
What was the error code?
If you are still having issues, install the printer as a USB connection, then when connecting the USB cable follow this document immediately. A Fatal Error Displays During Software Installation. Then I will provide the steps for flipping the port to the Ethernet connection. Just so we can get the software installed.
Test the printer as a USB connection.
Then go into Devices and Printers, right click the printer and left click Printer Properties, select the Ports tab.
Click Add Port, select Standard TCP/IP Port, then select New Port and follow the wizard.
Type in the proper IP address for the printer. You will need to print the Configuration page to get the printer's IPv4 address. Printing a Configuration Report.
Make sure the printer is online.
Test the printer.
Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
Have a great day!
Thank You.

HP Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M177fw can't scan or copy

I can not scan or copy. The printer is just showing a message on the display of "calibrating" I have not had any paper jams or changed any toners. I tried a hard reset to see if that would resolve the issue but it did not. I have the printer connected wirelessly. I have only had the unit for 2 weeks.

Hey @2stressed,
Unfortunately, the 'calibrating' error state that you have on your printer is a hardware issue. Therefore, any software troubleshooting (such as uninstalling and reinstalling) will have no impact on this issue.
At this time we have exhausted the support options available over the forums. I would strongly recommend that you contact our Technical Support queue by phone to explore hardware replacement options.
HP Technical Support can be reached at: 800-474-6836.
