Hp LaserJet M1217 nfw MFP won't allow me to setup wireless...

I am trying to setup a newly purchased, refurbished hp LaserJet M1217 nfw MFP so that I can print wirelessly, but it isn't giving me the option to do it. I started the process trying to follow the directions on a Windows 8 (hiss!!!) machine. The computer recognized that the printer (or something) was plugged in, but didn't start up automatically and I had to insert the CD into the drive to start the setup. When I chose the option to configure for a new wireless network, the software told me to connect the printer to the computer....but it was already connected. I chalked it up to Windows 8 being the devil and installed the printer on my wife's computer, still running Windows 7. I ran downstairs to grab the rest of the documentation after starting the configuration process and when I got back, the thing was installed....but only on my wife's computer. I can't figure out how to get the printer to be accessible wirelessly from other computers and am hoping to get more help. I tried using the CD to configure the printer, but got the same message regarding connecting the printer when it was already connected. Any help would make me hate this printer less and possibly not send it back to get another Epson printer (Which took almost no time to set up for wireless and was perfect....until my wife broke it). Thanks a lot...
OGDEN

Just as an add on: Does this thing even have functionality as a scanner? While it makes copies (I tried it out), if it can just be used as a scanner, there is no documentation and nowhere that I can find on the computer to use such a function. What a terrible product. No information available. Doesn't appear to be all that useful. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'm giving it a -3.65 right now. Someone from HP better get a reply of some sort to me soon or the thing goes back in the box and Epson gets the money instead...

HP LaserJet M1217 nfw MFP duplex printing mac

This printer prints duplex manually. Is there any way (as there is in Windows) to set printing to duplex so alternating pages print on one side and then paper is reinserted to complete duplex printing. Duplex option is grayed out in Word and other programs. Doing the job completely manually would be annoying.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Hi,
Try following the steps below and let me know if that helps:
From Word, open the Print dialog.
Click the Copies & Pages dropdown menu and select Layout.
Set Two-Sided as Lpng-Edge binding and click on Print.
If you cannot see the exact options, go to Printers & Scanners and click the Plus sign.
Select the M1217 printer and then click the Use drop down menu.
Be sure to select the printer model rather than the default AirPrint option and check for any difference.
Please let me know of any issue,

laserjet m1217 nfw stops 1/4 into 2nd page scan of multi page doc
error says that adf ran out of paper.. there is still paper in the scanner part way through the rollers
I have fixed problems with the scan not starting until page in a centimeter in but dont remember how i fixed it
susspect problem may be same

Hi @pwyckoff ,
I see that you are experiencing issues scanning from the ADF. The paper isn't being recognized. I would like to help you out today.
It might be a paper sensor or hardware issue with the printer.
I would do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
Here is a document for cleaning the ADF rollers and the separator pad.

Scanning using LaserJet Pro M1217 nfw MFP

Product: HP LaserJet Pro M1217nfw MFP
Mac OSX - Mountain Lion
I would like to scan using this printer. I can not find a reliable method. Any suggestion?

I just figured this out!! So happy!! I am using Windows, so not sure if this will help you MAC users (hoping to be one soon, haha). Here are the instructions I followed:
Place the document to be scanned either in the feeder or on the flatbed glass
Click Start
Click Programs (or All Programs depending on software)
Click HP and select your product (in this case, HP Color LaserJetPro MFP M177 fw)
Click HP Scan, select a scanning shortcut (e.g.: save as PDF), adjust settings as desired
Click Scan
And voila! You will have your scanned document saved on your computer for emailing, etc.

HP LaserJet Pro M1217 nfw MFP - Scanner Error 22

We are having Scan/Copy/Fax issues. Specifically "Scanner Error 22" (Yes 22, no not 52). I cannot find a manual specific to this model. When I bring one up via HP's website the actual pdf of the manual is for two other versions and they have the Error 52, not 22. So I am not sure what to do.
We have tried to resolve by powering down, unplugging, replugging etc., it hasn't worked. It was already plugged directly into the wall vs. strip.
We have uninstalled/reinstalled the software. Still no change.
The error comes on as soon as it powers up.
If you open the scanner bed there is a red light in the top left corner, I assume the scanner has become broken some how and would need to be replaced, but, we are no longer sure who paid for the printer/if it ever had a warranty so we are trying to fix it any other way possible. It is less than a year old.
(The printing capabilites [sending from computer itself] work perfectly and the prints are beautiful. I hate to throw out a machine that works a little bit, just not all the way)
Any suggestions?
The computer it was installed through is running Windows 7 SP1 32 bit. The machine is also connected through ethernet, nothing else I could see. I checked for any computer updates or driver updates that may have caused problems. Nothing I could see.
Thanks in advance,
BAR

Hi @BayAreaRecovery,
I see that you are getting a Scanner 22 Error. I can help you today.
I have provided a URL to check the Warranty on the printer. It should have a 1 year warranty depending on your location. Check your product warranty.
Here is a document on how to do the full reset on the printer. I wasn't sure if you followed this procedure when you did the power reset yourself. A 'Scanner Error 22' Message Displays on the Printer Control Panel.
Please check your private messages for additional steps to try.

Have a nice day!

HP Color Laserjet CM 1312 MFP / Won't Scan!

Hi guys,
I have been on the phone to HP for days they are blaming my computer but really it doesn't sound right... Brand new iMac, and a brand new CM1312... I have plugged it directly into the back of the computer via the USB the computer sees it and there is no problem with printing... BUT using the HP Scanner software it cannot see the printer via USB... I used the HP Set Up Wizard and when it comes to the screen asking to find the USB or Network printer it can't see it under USB, EVEN THOUGH IT PRINTS VIA USB... Has anyone had this issue before? Am I better off using an ethernet cord?

Hello Tom:
I do not have the same printer, so I am fishing a bit.
I have read here that all-in-one devices only print when using the built-in OS X drivers. Those with that particular problem have had some success by doing what you have tried - namely installing the manufacturer's software.
You might try uninstalling the printer, and then starting over with HP's software.
My own printer is Ethernet-connected, but I do that so it is available on my little home network. candidly, I prefer Ethernet connections over USB, but that is a personal preference, not an indictment of USB.

Hp Laserjet Cp1025 nw color won't connect to my laptop wirelessly

I have had my Hp Laserjet cp1025 nw for less then a year and we moved to a new place and since we have moved i have not been able to get my printer to connect wirelessly. I have to send whatever I am printing to my phone and then eprint it which is a pain. The wireless light just keeps blinking and I have installed and uninstalled the program for it multiple times. I am a student and have a ton of things that I have to print off so I need to get this fixed asap

Here is your support page.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=4052972&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
Read everything, Getting Started and the manuals are here too. Once the wireless light is on solid you should be good to go.
Student? This is YOUR router that you have control over right?

HP laserjet m1217 interface with Microsoft Surface

How so I print from a Surface RT to HP m1217 nfw MFP?
Thanks,

Hey,
The RT version of the Surface does not have a full package of Windows 8. It does not have the ability to install the drivers for the M1217nfw printer. There is not a release of the Universal Print Driver package for RT either.
However, you can setup the printer for ePrint which will allow you to email a document or photo needing to be printed to the unit's email address. Once the ePrint service receives the email it will print the document/photo off your printer.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02940150&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=e...
The above linked document will give you information about setting up a Custom Email address for your printer using ePrint services.
Hope this helps,

Disabling LaserJet 100 color MFP M175nw as a wireless hotspot

Hello
Bought HP LaserJet 100 color MFP M175nw.
It announces ( broadcasts) its wireless network HP-Print-74-LaserJet100.
Which interferes with my other wireless network, and makes quality of signal lower.
Is it possible to disable wireless hotspot feature on the printer?
Wifi is disabled in setup (printer is connected by ethernet).
Thank you in advance

Hi rghw
I will be happy to help you.
To disable the wireless direct you can also do it right on the printer by going to the setup button (wrench) on the printer, right arrow to network setup menu,wireless menu, wireless direct, turn it off from there.
The web server is to access the network page for the printer.
To access the web server page, print out a configuration report from the printer by going to the setup button (wrench) on the printer, right arrow to reports, config report to get the ip address for the printer.
You type in the ip address for the printer in the address of bar of internet explorer to bring up the embedded web server for the printer.
If you need more assistance just let me know.

HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425dn won't print text at 72 point size or larger

My workplace recently purchased an HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425dn all-in-one printer. It works excellently with the exception of the fact that it won't print text that's 72 points or larger in size. I've tried numerous fonts that're pre-installed with Windows, and all of them print properly at point size 71.5 or smaller; anything else simply doesn't show up in prints. The content that's sized at 72 points or higher *does* affect the flow of other printed content on the page, however. It's like the 72-point or larger text is occupying space, but it's completely invisible on the printed page. I've tested this using Microsoft Word 2002 on three separate computers, two of which have Windows 7 installed and one of which has Windows Vista installed. The problem is identical on all three computers. The printer is connected via ethernet cable to our wired network. I've installed the included printer software, and I don't believe that there are any updates to it that weren't installed up to this point. Any thoughts on how to resolve this issue?

hello, i only made an account to solve this for you guys because it has been a headache for me also.... let me apologize before hand for terrible grammar and punctuation i am in a huge hurry Now this may not work for everybody but i fixed it on my machine with the following now before you print ...use (ctrl+p) in your word processor to open the print window click on (properties) then navigate to the (advanced) tab now, I have a section called printer features under this category there is an option to "send truetype as bitmap" enable this and see if it can help any of you, for me, with this ENABLED I can print any size font my word processor will allow me to type specs of my machinedell d6420win7msoft word 2007 printer itself is hp laserjet 200 color m276 printer driver is HP LaserJet 200 color MFP M276 PCL 6 i understand that this printer and driver is not identical to yours per se but the nature of these drivers makes it highly likely that this solution will work for most of you if this helps, have somebody else post it more noticeably because i will probly not be signing back in to this website i created this account just to post this and hopefully solve this annoying issue for many of you ...no kudos needed
