HP LaserJet M1217nfw MFP printer

I have a HP LaserJet M1217nfw MFP printer durning install it will not intall with my wifi... Says there is no WPS

Do not use WPS to install the printer. In fact WPS should be disabled in the router for security purposes. Install the printer manually following the instruction for Infrastructure network in the manual.

Dear Team,
i have on the server win 2008 R2 standard , i have installed the drivers of HP Laserjet M1217nfw MFP printer ,
on the client i have win pro 7 SP1.
i need to print through RDP the documents generated in my application which i access remotely using RDP.
i know the printer drivers are installed on client and server both.
the issue is of creation of custom pages to print the document in proper format so that it prints in the client PC with proper formatting.

I need you advise and assistance as to how do i go about achieving my objective with this printer,
Thanking you in advance

Hello JBC666,
I understand that you are having an issue with printing wireless from your M1217nfw. I can understand how frustrating this can be. I would like to confirm a couple of things with you to get better understanding of your setup.
1) How far away from the printer is the router?
2) Has there been an recent changes that could have caused the issue?
As well printing a network test report, is an excellent option to find out if there is any issues with the connection at all. I have included the following steps to print the test.
1) Press the wrench button
2) Press the right arrow until you see Network Config
3) Press Ok
4) Press the right arrow until you see Network Test
5) Press Ok
1) Does anything fail on this test?
2) What is the signal quality?
3) Are you able to view the printers embedded web server?
   Steps to accessing the embedded web server
   1) Open up your internet browser
   2) Type the IP address (from the test report) into the address bar
   3) Press Enter
Thank you.

LaserJet m1217nfw mfp - wireless printing keep failing / dropping off on Mac OS 10.7.5

I have installed my LaserJet m1217nfw mfp at least 4 times in the past month using my Mac that's running on OS 10.7.5. The first time was with the CD that came with the printer, and the last 3 times was with the latest software downloaded from HP.
Each time, the wireless printing is set up and works without problem (using these official HP instructions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48mLZoRjJm0). But a few days later, when I try to do the wireless printing again from the same Mac, it can't find the printer on the network. And nothing about the network or router has changed.
It's quite frustrating. I doubt installing it for the 5th time is going to solve the problem once and for all.
Any ideas much appreciated!
Thanks

Hello SC_W,
The IP address can be fixed by going to Setup > Network Config > TCP/IP Config from the printer front panel.
Then select Manual and set the IP as manual.. I would using an higher value to avoid IP conflicts (e.g. if the current IP is 10.0.0.1, change only the last part to 10.0.0.20 so the address will remain and won't be used by other devices when the printer is powered off.)
Although I personally doubt it will help assigning a fixed IP as Mac OS X uses Bonjour hostname to communicate with the printer (which is fixed) and not athe IP address as Windows uses.
Additionally, as Apple products uses Bonjour, I could see some discussions on this matter for the Home Hub 3.0.
Below is an example:
https://community.bt.com/t5/Other-BB-Queries/HomeHub-3-Apple-Bonjour-not-working-for-AirPlay-AirPrin...
If setting a fixed IP does not help, try the folowing to isolate the problem and ensure if Multicast packets transfer may cause the issue:
From your Mac go to System Preferences > Print & Scan, click the Plus sign and then click the IP tab.
Select the HP Jetdirect Socket protocol and type the IP as the address value.
Add the printer, you will see an additional print queue listed as the IP address.
Keep using this queue for printing and let me know if you may se any difference for this print queue..

HP AiO remote doesn't recognize 3rd party toner as compatible in LaserJet M1217nfw MFP

Hi,
I have a HP Envy 17 running Windows 8.1, a MacBook Air, an iPhone and a HP LaserJet M1217nfw MFP. I recently replaced the toner with a 3rd party replacement cartridge and while the printer does give me a "supply memory error" I am still able to print just fine from the Mac and my phone. I am unable however to print from my Envy. The HP All-in-One Remote app in Windows 8 gives me an "incompatible cartridge" message and says there are no solutions availble. Is there a work-around to this?
I am not very good at Windows 8....
Thanks

Hi Thaddeus,
Although the printer may resoponse to some commands, a supply memory error is an error state about the used cartridge.
Due the error message on the screen the HP AIO Remote recognize the cartridge as incompatible, that cannot be bypassed
with any settings, resolving the issue which cause the error message is the only key to resolve a such.
If the HP AiO Remote fails to print in such condition the only solution is to fully resolve the condition by following the steps listed in my previous post.

Can I make my HP laserjet m1522nf mfp printing wirelessly?

I have this non-wireless hp laserjet m1522nf mfp printer at home. I have two laptops and am using FiOS wireless router for wireless internet access. I also have a Rosewill wireless router. It is not a printer server, just a regular wireless router. Now I use an enthernet cable connecting printer to Rosewill wireless router. Can I print from my laptops? If yes, how can I set it up?
I know I can either buy a wireless printer server, or a wireless adaptor or use one of the laptop as printer server to make this work. But I want to try laptop + Rosewill wireless router + HP printer route.
Thanks in advance,
-J. Z.

Hi,
Based on its specs, it has:
Connectivity, standard
10/100Base-T Ethernet network port, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compatible port.
Connectivity, optional
None
You may be able to connect it to a wireless rounter and config it on the same wireless network then you can print wirelessly.
Please use the following book (page #13) to set it up.

Yes I solved the problem. I had to clean the registry of all information regarding this printer. During the installation I noticed interesting thing. The only installation that worked well was from the CD that came with the printer. I've tried downloaded latest version but it didn't install properly and have no idea why.

Scan in a PDF format in HP laserjet M1319f MFP printer

How to scan in a PDF format when the scanner is not showing that option in HP laserjet M1319f MFP printer when it has been installed in a new HP computer with Windows8pro operating system downloading it from HP website ad the Cd that came with the printer did not support this operating system

Hello yagnya31,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see you are trying to install and scan with the HP LaserJet M1319f MFP, but are not getting a .PDF option. Printing and scanning with the Windows 8 Operating System is described as basic. The .PDF file type should be available regardless, of the software being basic or full feature. Take a look at this HP document: How to Scan: Windows 8 to learn about the different ways to scan.
See if those methods of scanning gives you the .PDF file type.

Just installed a HP Color Laserjet CM2320nf MFP printer, at the same time I upgraded to Lion. It prints fine, but I cannot use the scan functions. I downloaded the most recent driver! Any help would be appreciated.

HP says that the drivers for your all in one print/scanner are downloadable from apple. For the scanner to use preview. image capture or the scan icon from the print driver queue. I don't know how old your HP is, but I know that the newer Os from apple don't support a lot of older printers. You might be able find a third party driver that could work.

Hi AFace; hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that you are having this issue.
Your HP Color Laserjet CM1015 MFP is a commercial product. I will suggest posting and looking in the forum for HP Business Support for a better chance at finding a prompt solution.

HP laserjet m1536dnf mfp print and scan is very slow

Hi Sir/Madam,
HP laserjet m1536dnf mfp print and scan is printing and scanning slow on network. Sometimes scan is not work. That's why I have to reinstall the printer driver. So how to increase print speed?
Thanks in advance,

Hi riz1_4444,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I understand the printer is printing and scanning slow on the network.
I will be happy to help you.
Make sure printer is connected directly to a wall outlet.
Try printing a hardware test on the printer to see if it prints slow or not.
Printing a Configuration Report. Select Method one: Print a Configuration Report from the printer control panel.
I would restart the router to see if this will resolve the issue.
Try another Ethernet cable.
If you are still having issue then test the printer by connecting the printer to the computer by a USB cable to see if it is something on the network that is causing it to slow down.
Hope this resolves your issue for printing slow over the network.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a wonderful day!

HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP Printer - Communication Failure with the scanner

Dear all,
May I kindly ask if there are any known resolutions in terms of a scanning issue with the HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP Printer?
When it starts scanning the printer only scans the up to the 3rd or 4th page, it stops in the middle of the sheet and produces an error message stating the following: Communication Failure with the scanner.
Are there any steps that may be followed in order to resolve the incident?
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Ryan

Hi @Ryan_HP ,
I see that you are experiencing a communication error during scanning of multiple pages. I would like to help, but I will need some more information to provide you with the correct steps to resolve this issue.
If you are using Windows, download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
Temporarily turn off any Antivirus Software, just to rule out any interference.
Try scanning again.
What operating system are you using?
How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet)
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
What scanning software are you using?
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

[SOLVED] foomatic-rip-hplip and HP laserjet M1212nf MFP printer

I'm trying to install and configure the drivers for the HP laserjet M1212nf MFP printer to work with CUPS over a wired network using the hplip utilities.
I've installed and set up the printer drivers etc using hp-setup and the printer is appearing in the CUPS interface. The problem is that when trying to print a test page
from the cups interface, I'm receiving the message "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip-hplip failed"
Has anyone had any experience with this error? what needs to be done to fix this? this is semi-important as I need my printer for work and school.
SOLVED: okay, so I found several solutions that combined seem to have solved my problems.
1.) remove the printer from cups
2.) instead of using 'hp-setup -i <printer-ip> just use hp-setup -i.
3.) have Hal, Dbus, and Avahi up and running (probably my biggest problem, I didn't have hal or avahi installed, and I didn't have dbus running)
4.) unpause printer
5.) pray
6.) print test page.
these steps worked for me (not necessarily in the above order...)

HELP! Cannot set up HP LaserJet M1217nfw MFP

I just purchased an HP LaserJet M1217nfw multi-function printer and am not able to install a driver on my Mac. I am using the latest MacBook Pro 17" with Mountain Lion.
The printer is working. I also have access to a PC and I have configured it wirelessly on an AirPort network. The printer works fine. But when I try to add the printer to my Mac via system preferences I am given this message:
"The software for this printer is currently unavailabe. Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software."
And when I ignore that and hit the "Add Printer" button, it shows the printer on my wireless network, but will not find a driver for it. I have installed the driver from HP, and still nothing.
Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Kirk

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Mountain Lion. There's a Mountain Lion Support Community where everybody has Mountain Lion.
