HP LaserJet Pro C1415fn color MFP - fax won't work

I have a LaserJet Pro CM1415fn color MFP on a Windows 7 64-bit laptop. I've been using the printer for two years now.
At the moment the fax function only works if I use it manually (i.e. if I place a sheet of paper on the scanner, select the "Fax" button on the printer touch pad and dial the number). However, if I want to send a fax via the PC interface, it won't work.
For example, if I open a PDF, click on "Print" and select "HP LaserJet Professional CM 1410 Series Fax", nothing happens -- no window/interface will open. If I select "HP Send Fax" or "HP Fax Setup Wizard" from the program menu, nothing happens.
I've always been sending faxes this way and I just don't know what happened... Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @Clabee ,
I see that you can't fax from the PC anymore. I can help you with this.
If this just recently happened, I would do a System Restore back to when everything was working properly.
System Restore for Windows 7.
If you would prefer not to do the System Restore, uninstall and reinstall the printer software. It might become corrupted.
Here are the steps to run the uninstall from the computer or the CD.
To uninstall from program files:
Touch the Windows key and the E key to access the computer window.
Select the C drive.
Select program files or program files x86.
Open the HP and printer name folder.
Select uninstall.
Uninstall the software from the CD:
Touch the Windows key and the E key to access the computer window. Right click on the CD for the printer, left click open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
Disable all the start up programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software. How to use MSCONFIG .
Click on the start up tab and click disable all.
Download, save and install the latest drivers.
HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw Color Multifunction Printer Drivers.
Test the printer and try sending a fax again from the PC.
Then you will need to go back in and enable the start up programs and turn the Antivirus Software back on again.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

  • HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP touch screen not working.

    My touch screen on my HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP doesn't want to work in the screen part. The black perimeter works, but not the color part where the Copy, Fax,Scan... icons are, rendering them unaccessible.

    Hi FGCMedia,
    I understand that the display screen on the LaserJet 200 MFP is not responding to touch, but the out side options such as Home, Back, etc work.
    Connect a USB cable to a Windows computer and try updating the firmware for the printer, HP LaserJet Pro Series Firmware Update Utility.
    Let me know if that helped.

  • LASERJET PRO 100 COLOR MFP M175 - does not work

    If I press the power button for turning on  , then both of LEDs "ready" and "attention" light  , and  display lights too. But the unit does not work.

    Hello OlegRu,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with lights flashing on the printer.
    Are you getting any kind of an error message on the display screen?
    Please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Write me back when you have time with any additional information you can provide.
    Thank you.

  • Laserjet pro 400 color MFP m475dw scanner stopped working in windows 8.1. Please help!

    updated my laptop to windows 8.1 and the hp scanning software stopped working.  It would not find the printer even though i could print from it.  I uninstalled the entire software suite, removed all traces of the printer from contol pannel and then proceeded to download the 8.1 64 bit version of the full solution suite.  Tried to run it and the program gets to about 80%, says a problem occurred while preparing to install software to your system and tells me to restart computer and try again.  
    Tried restart, no go.  then tried to load just the basic print and scan and same problem.  Restarted, tried again and nothing.  then i turned off firewall and antivirus.  did prior steps and nothing.  I can manually install the printer through control pannel but I cant get the HP software to load at all.  plum out of ideas and of course HP wants to charge me to troubleshoot a year old printer but cant guarantee it will work.  Lovely.... Any help is appreciated.     

    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
    I hope this helps.

  • LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP Touch screen totally blank

    Hi I have a Laserjet Pro 200 color MFP 276n which was working fine on friday - printing via a USB and photocopying using the screen. I've come to use it this morning and the printer has nothing on the touch screen and nothing around the screen. I get a brief red cross in the bottom right when I turn the printer on but that's it. 
    But to make it worse the computer says that it can't connect to the printer to try and trouble shoot. I've tried 3 different USB ports on the computer and nothing happens.
    I've tried disconnecting the printer from the computer and trying to do a reset as per other issues I've found say to press where the arrow is on the right when turning the printer on - nothing happens. I've also tried pressing on the bottom left of the screen when turning it on - no difference.
    Does anyone have any other idea's please.
    Many Thanks

    Hi @wenddh, 
    I see by your post that there is no display on the printer. I can help you with this.
    Make sure there is no damage on the power cord and that it is connected directly to a wall outlet.
    The printer shouldn't be exposed to any electric or magnetic field.
    Try another outlet in another room, just to rule that out.
    I have provided a document for display or power issues.
    The Printer Will Not Turn On or Respond When the Power Button or Power Switch is Pressed.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw. The fax forwarding feature no longer will forward a fax.

    I am using the HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw.  Is it possible to forward the fax as a email instead of printing it out?  The current fax forwarding feature only supports forwarding to another fax number but not email.  If fax forwarding to email is not support, is there any other solution?
    Albert

    Hi @Albert1024 ,  I understand that you aren't able to forward the faxes. I can help you today.
    You can only forward that faxes from the printer to the fax number.
    Check to make sure the Fax Forwarding didn't get turned off and it is still showing the correct fax number.
    1.  From the Home screen, touch the Fax button.
    2. Touch the Fax Menu button.
    3. Touch the Receive Options button.
    4. Touch the Forward Fax button, and touch the On button.
    5. Use the keypad to enter the fax-forwarding number, and then touch the OK button.
    Turn off the Private Receive.
    1.  From the Home screen, touch the Setup button.
    2. Touch the Fax Setup menu.
    3. Touch the Advanced Setup menu.
    4. Scroll to and touch the Private Receive button, and then touch the Off button.
    Clear out the saved faxes, to make sure this isn't causing any issues.
    Go to Setup on the printer, Services, Fax Service and select Clear Saved Faxes.
    Update the printer's firmware. HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw Drivers.
    If you are still having issues, we can try a full reset on the printer.

  • Laserjet pro 200 color MFP won't print cyan

    My HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw printer has stopped printing cyan.  It does it for files sent to the printer as well as just trying to make a copy.  The cyan cartridge has been replaced and status shows full.   I've run all the onboard diagnositics, cleaning page, etc. with no luck.  How do I determine the problem and fix it?

    Hi , Thanks for getting back to me! It's not abnormal to see some print quality issues once your toner is lower that 20%. Were you able to complete the steps in the document that I sent? Is there any cyan on the print quality printout at all? If not, it could be a defective toner cartridge. I would suggest contacting HP Support to inquire about a replacement if it is a Genuine HP toner cartridge.**Fill in the model number and the form to receive a case number for quicker assistance. If a replacement toner cartridge does not resolve the issue, then it's possible that the printer may need to be serviced. Hope this helps!Thanks again for posting, and have a great day.

  • LaserJet Pro 200 color mfp m276 Printing issues

    I have had this printer for about a year now.  Now it has started printing solid black lines across the page I am printing, whether it be from my computer or a fax.  I can run the cleaning process from the printer and its fine for a few hours and then back to the solid black lines.  It gets so bad there is more ink on the paper than white when it does this.  Have tried everything I can think  of to cure this to no avail.  I am running hp cartridges and just plain white paper.  Any ideas as to how to fix this.  These lines are thick lines, just not _____ but are about 1 " wide each.
    I really need help with this really soon or I will have to replace it with another brand.  I use this in my office and can't have important faxes coming across with all these lines so I can't read it.  I posted this Saturday and still waiting for someone to respond.

    Hi @RandallRaley , 
    I understand that when printing, you are getting solid black lines across the paper and now on the back of the paper. You are using HP cartridges, plain paper and have ran the cleanings with the same result. I can help you today.
    Try another type of 20lb -24lb plain paper to see if you have the same results.
    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.
    Update the printer's firmware. HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw Drivers.
    Select your operating system, click next, click the link for firmware.
    Try printing again.
    If the issue persists, follow the steps for aligning and cleaning the toners, printing a Print Quality page, inspecting the toner for damage, checking the paper and driver settings to see if this will resolve the issue.
    Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    Are you getting the black lines on the Hardware Self Tests also?
    Where is the printer located? (on a desk, on a enclosed shelf in desk)
    What kind of paper are you using?
    What is the weight of the paper?
    Was there any black on the toner?
    Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.

  • Laserjet pro 100 color mfp m175

    We have a number of HP LaserJet Pro 100 Color MFP M175's in our school.  They are connected to the network via ethernet cable rather than wirelessly. A number of users print to them either from a Windows XP (running service pack 2) desktop or from a Windows 7 (newly built) laptop.  They were working fine for a few days and then all of a sudden they may have any of the following problems:
    unsupported personality error printed at the top of a lot of pages (ie you may try and print one page but hundreds of pages come out with this error).
    there may be an invalid driver error on the control panel on the printer
    there may be weird alien-looking characters at the top of hundreds of blank pages
    initially all of the printers had the driver installed that came with the printers, when we started getting the error, we then tried running the diagnostics doctor on the hp web site, which said all the drivers were valid.  We have also tried using the universal print driver from the HP support website, but still get the problem after a few days.  We can make all of the errors go away by re-installing any of the above drivers, but then the problem starts happening again after a few days. The server is Windows 2003R2 running service pack 2, we have tried installing the drivers on the server too, but they won't install. Another printer was set up this week in the school office which only has people printing from Windows 7 machines and doesn't have the error - this could be because it's too soon to happen yet, or maybe because there are no Windows XP machines printing to it? (It does print through the same server as the others)  Help would be greatly appreciated, we are a school and so can't afford to be wasting lots of paper, plus this is taking up all of our time rather than fixing other issues!  thanks in advance

    Tammy, sounds like there could be a couple things that might cause this issue. The first of which is that the RJ45 cable you are using to connect the printer might have become corrupted. I would replace that cord and see if the issue remains. 
    Second, I want you to see about updating the firmware from this website :
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategor​y?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=5076465
    If that still presents issues, you can use that same website to download the more recent drivers. I would uninstall the old version you have on the computer and then open that link and install the full feature software. 
    Let me know how that goes and I will get right back with you! 
    I hope you are having a wonderful week, and I hope that the weather where you are located is as beautiful there as it is here!

  • HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw color MFP printing & scanning problems

    Ever since I purchased this multifunction color printer, it has been unreliable. My Mac Mini running the latest OS (currently Mavericks OX 10.9.2) will be printing and scanning fine, and then at some point it can't find the scanner, the printing slows to an amazing crawl, and then the printing stops altogether. I have repeatedly attempted to set up the printer under Preferences and have installed the latest drivers from the HP website. When that works, it's a short-term fix; eventually, the bugs come back. The darn thing won't scan or print again, and I'm pretty fed up. I paid a premium price for a premium color multifunction printer for my home, and it has been nothing but a problem. Help!

    Hello StoopBoy,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.
    I see that you have an HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw color MFP being operated on a Mac 10.9.2. The CM1415fnw will not maintain a continual connection to the computer displaying errors and very slow printing. Since you have done a great job already troubleshooting the issue some of the steps I suggest will have already been done by yourself.
    I suggest you take these steps to help resolve the issue:
    1. Reset the Printing Systems by following this Apple Document: Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system.
    2. Uninstall the HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw color MFP with this HP document: Uninstall HP printer software.
    3. Repair disk permissions on the Mac.
    4. Check for and install any and all updates on the Mac.
    5. Downlaod and Install the printer HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw color MFP software.
    I hope this helps and will allow you to have more continual functionality with your Laserjet.
    Thanks,

    HP Model:  HP LaserJet Pro 100 color MFP M177fw
    After "updating" drivers on my IMac my Scanner disappeared and I have not been able to Scan for over a month.  I just started a new business and this is debilitating!  Can anyone shed any light on this? I do have Yosemite and will unintall it to get my Scanner back if that's what it takes.  However, HP should "fix" this issue immediately; afterall, I spent close to $400 on this JetPrinter and am willing to return it.

    Hi @BertieBaby ,
    I see that you are having issues with scanning after updating drivers on the Mac. I will certainly do my best to help you.

    I see you're experiencing issues installing the printer software. I will do my best to assist you with this issue.

How to use MSCONFIG . Click on the Startup tab and click Disable all, Then click the Services tab and check Hide All Microsoft Services.
    Restart the computer.
    Disconnect the USB cable from the printer.
    Run the uninstall from the CD.
    Go start, computer, right click on the CD for the printer, left click open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
    Make sure that the print spooler service is running.
    Right-click Print Spooler, and then click Properties.
    If the Startup type is set to Manual or Disabled, click the drop-down list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.
    Under Service status, click Stop and then Start, and then click OK.
    Run the installation again and don't connect the cable until prompted.
    Test the printer.
    Then you will have to go back and enable the Startup programs, Microsoft Services and turn the Antivirus Software back on again.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.

    laserjet pro 200 color mfp m276nw stops printing giving an error message that the is memory low. How do I clear the memory?

    I have had the same issue, cannot print multiple pages without having the memory low error appear.  I have cleared the faxes from the setting menu. I have done an NVRAM reset and am able to print a 3 page document once and then receive the low memory error when I attempt to print another 3 page document. Please PM me the way to resolve this problem.  Thanks in advance.

  • HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color MFP M276n: not enough Memory

    Hi, my new M276n printer has memory problems. Print jobs above two pages are being stopped with a "not enough memory" notification. I searched this forum and found a "temporary" fix (reset printer to default settings) and a mysteriously missing Step 3 (removed from the message). This does not help in the long run because after just 4 more prints I have the same problem again. I don't print a whole lot, mainly Amazon returns labels and information. Reset or not, the information page shows 127MB out of 256MB available memory. What is the other half used for? Questions:   1. Is there a fix?2. Will it help if I disable unneeded functionality (fax)?3. CAN I disable fax? (If so: how?)4. Is there a fix? Thanks!

    Hi,
    As I understand you get a 49 error while printing PDF document from hp laserjet pro 200 color MFP M276n.
    Kindly follow these steps to resolve the issue.
    1. Open the PDF document you want to print.
