HP Laserjet PRO M201dw-- Power ON Light

So this is a neat LaserJet and replacement for my HP LJ 1020. (BTW: Anyone in NYC, Manhattan, LES, want a used HP LJ1020; it has plenty of toner. Printer Cost to you: $5.00)
The Power Light (on) is extremely bright and when I darken the room at night it can light up the whole room.
Is there a way, short of turning off the power altogether to dim that light?
Some TV's and other appliances have that capability, and I would appreciate any reader or HP tech person offering guidance as to how to do this.
I checked the control panel and did not find any particular step to accomplish this. Perhaps a firmware update can make this so?
If there is a step, please be as detailed as possible insofar as to how to accomplish dimming this POWER ON light.
Thanks in advance.

I have a Mac Air.. with 10.10 and just purchased a HP laserjet pro M201dw .. I can't get it to print duplex in pages or word. In pages not highlighted. does in Adobe for pdf. Help!

I have a Mac Air with 10.10 . Just purchased a HP Laserjet Pro M201dw printer. I can not get the duplex printing to work in Word or Pages. It does work for PDF files in Acrobat Pro. It won't for emails. In Pages I see two- sided but it is dimmed. I look at setups and it shows two -sided is off but can't find a way to change this setting. In the printer setting itself, the duplex box is checked. Need help. Did notice the driver only goes up to 10.9 but it says on Apple site of supported printers this one is listed.
Appreciate help in solving this issue.
Thanks in advance for anyone willing to give me some time and assistance.

All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

HP LaserJet Pro m201dw suddenly not printing via ethernet (wired) network using Mac OS 10.10.1

Hi,
My brand-new HP LaserJet Pro M201dw is suddenly not cooperating when I go to print using my Mac. I had it set up following the directions which closest matched my OS and it worked perfectly for one week; today suddenly it won't cooperate. The printer is seen on the network. I have deleted and re-installed it from my System Preferences several times. I have rebooted my computer. I cannot seem to get it to work. Even the HP Utility is having difficulty. The HP Utility is suddenly slow and often needs to be force-quit as it hangs when I navigate to other applications (web browser, etc.) while waiting for it to respond to clicks. Most often the HP Utility shows the printer in the status ara as "Device Status: Unknown" and "Supplies: Unknown" which it wasn't having issues with yesterday.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot this device? Is there better documentation than the basic setup page here on HP? What about adjusting some setting in the printer web page (which I can access) - is the answer in there?
Thank you.

Hi @td2243,
I see that you are having issues printing over the wired network. I would like to help you out with this issue today.

Did you get any replies back?
Repair the Disk Permissions on the Mac:
Close all applications.
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left.
Click Verify and then Repair Disk Permissions.
Restart the computer..
Reset the Printing System:
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Click the Apple icon and then click System Preferences.
Click Printers & Scanners.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system.
Then click the + sign to add the driver, highlight the printer. (you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name) Then click on the Add button.
Try printing again.

MacBook Pro 17" power adapter lights orange when NOT plugged into laptop.

My MacBook Pro power adapter lights up orange even though it is not plugged into a device. When I do plug it into my laptop it remains the same and does not charge. Due to this my laptop is now dead. What does this orange light mean?

You should take both your MBP(Macbook Pro) and your power adapter to an Apple Genius bar or an AASP(Authorized Apple Service Provider) for a free evaluation. This is a strange occurance, and it seems that it may be a hardware malfunction.
Make an appointment so you don't have to wait too long.

My macbook pro wont power up, light flashes if i hold power button continuously

my macbook pro won't power up, if i hold power button down continuously i get a flashing light (by the clasp), i'm thinking this is probably a hard drive issue. anyone have any idea what the problem is?

Hi je339999,
Exactly which model is your MacBook Pro? The problem you're having sounds similar to what is mentioned here -http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
However, it's possible that it's something else as well. Are you near an Apple Store or Apple Certified Service Center? It's probably worth it at this point to bring it for additional triage.

HP laserjet Pro M201dw won't print emails... Help Shlomil

Hoping Shlomil will help me again... same printer and setup .. with Mac Air 10.10 .. wont print emails but does other printing.. on print screen won't show document - so prints blank page .. for other printers selected it shows documents and prints.
Also.. finding that it seems to go back to single sided and uncheck the duplex. I have to check each time to make sure all setting as okay for it to work on documents. Of course.. this does not apply to email issue noted above. Email using Mac Mail.
Help, once again...

Thanks for letting me know @pathfinder2020 .
Here is a document for ePrint information. Getting Started with ePrint.
Select Are there any limitations when using ePrint? ePrint does not support duplexing (printing on both sides of the page).
If they are using a Eprint App, it may print two-sided if the printer supports it.
This document provides information on how to Use ePrint & mobile devices.
Hope this helps.

Very light print with LaserJet Pro CM1415

Core issue: Almost invisible printing
Product: LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw
OS: Windows 8.1 64-bit (same issue with Windows 7 and Windows Vista Ultimate - all 64-bit)
Replaced all 4 cartridges with brand hew HP cartridges even though old HP ones were not depleated.
Updated all drivers and printer firmware to most current versions.
Ran all HP diagnostics and troubleshooting including cleaning (twice).
Tried adjusting print desity to darker -- no effect at all.
Total pages printed since it was new - 2222
Even tried printing black only with no effect.
Supply status shows all cartidges registered and 100% full.
I read the other forum messages on the same printer and subject and it appears that the problem is very common, and I never was able to find a solution that worked.
This appears to be a problem with the printer itself -- possibly some sort of internal defect. Amusing that it seems to have happened about coincidental with expiration of warranty.
Is there a solution?

Hi @TereP,
I see that you are having issues with the print being very light. You already replaced the toners with Genuine HP Toners and still have the same results. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue today.
It may be a issue with the fuser or another hardware issue causing this.
I have provided some steps to see if we can determine what the issue is.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
Run a cleaning and calibrate the printer:
On the printer touch the Setup icon, System Setup, Print Quality menu, and select the Color Calibration item.
Select the Calibrate Now option.
Then go to the Setup icon, Service Menu, Cleaning Page.
Print a Diagnostics Page to see if it is a hardware or software issue.
Go to Setup, Reports, Diagnostics Page.
Here is a picture of the Diagnostics Page.
Let me know if there are any issues with the colors printed, the alignment of the L's at the bottom corners of the page and if there are any smudges or blots on the page.
Print the Print Quality Page, it will help determine which toners are causing this issue.
1. On the product control panel, open the Reports menu.
2. Select the Print Quality Page item to print it.
● If dots or streaks appear in only one of the groups, replace the print cartridge that correlates with
that group.
● If dots appear in more than one group, print a cleaning page. If this does not solve the problem,
determine if the dots are always the same color; for example, if magenta dots appear in all five
color bands. If the dots are all the same color, replace that print cartridge.
I have provided a document to go through the steps to see if this will help resolve this issue.
Resolving Print Quality Issues.
The diagnostics and the print quality page will help with determining this issue.
Let me know the results please. You may include a screen shot if you like. Visual is always better for determining the issue.
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)

Laserjet Pro 200MFP, lights on but won't function or communicate

Laserjet Pro 200 MFP screen is blank, surrounding lights on, won't operate or commuunicate.

Hi @ntcktt,
I see by your post that the display is blank but the lights are on. I can help you with this.
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.
Try another outlet in another room, just to rule that out.
What is the full name and product number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
There are about 4 Laserjet 200 models.
Have a nice day!

Power requirements of HP LaserJet Pro P1606dn Printer

Hello,
I had bought this printer from USA and brought it to India.
Now I've a question that whether this printer will work with a 240v of power input ??
Cause in USA HP website it is mentioned that it will work with a 110-volt input voltage: 110 to 127 VAC (+/- 10%), 60 Hz (+/- 2 Hz), 7 A; 220-volt input voltage: 220 to 240 VAC (+/- 10%), 50 Hz (+/- 2 Hz), 4 A
It can be seen over here : http://www.shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Printers/HP-LaserJet/CE749A?HP-LaserJet-Pro-...
In India's Product page also it is mentioned same.It can be seen over here : http://www8.hp.com/in/en/products/printers/product-detail.html?oid=4110411#!tab%3Dspecs
Moreover on the back of the printer power requirements are given 110-127V ~AC.The pic of it can be seen over here: http://www.storemyfile.org/getfile.php?id=5724&key=4e7b6c045
So I'm in dilemma that whether this printer is a multivoltage printer (i.e. 110v to 220v) or not?
Pls. give me clarification about this so that I can start using the Printer ASAP.
Thanks

Welcome to the HP Forums RockmihiR91,
I read your post and see that you would like to know if the printer supports 240v.
I can help you with this.
Yes, you can use the printer on the 240v, but you will need a power outlet adapter and you will need
the adapter so it will fit the receptacle and converter.
It is not internally on the printer.
Hope this helps.
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276 Blue Blinking Wifi Light

I just bought a new HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276 with wifi and eprint. I just started up this new printer and the blue wifi indicator / light is blinking. I do not have a router but would like to print wirelessly from my iphone, galaxy s5, laptop and my macbook air.
I started with my laptop and could not print wirelessly.
Can you please tell me as to why that light is printing. How can I set up my devices to print wirelessly.

Hi @JerryHP ,
I see by your post that you would like to setup the printer to print with your Laptop, iPhone, Galaxy s5, Laptop and the Macbook Air. I would be happy to help you.
Since you don't have a router, you can turn the Wireless Direct on from the printer's control panel. From the devices you would connect to the printer's network to be able to print.
On the printer's display, go to Setup, Network Setup, Wireless Menu, Wireless Direct Settings and turn it on.
Follow Step two from this document for connecting to the printer.
Printing from an Apple or Android Mobile Device with HP Wireless Direct.
For the Mac and Windows computer you would also need to connect to the printer's network or your other option would be to connect with a USB cable.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

HP Laserjet Pro 300 won't power up fully

I've had an HP Laserjet Pro 300 for 4 months and I haven't had any issues until today.
I ran a few scans without issue and then in the middle of a scan, it just quit scanning. It seems to have lost connectivity.
I shut the printer down and attempted to re-boot it. It started booting then it quit shortly afterward and didn't finish booting. The power is up but it doesn't load fully.
I have tried rebooting the computer connected to the printer and I have unplugged the power cord and printer connection and attempted to re-boot the printer several times but it has been the same result for a couple of hours.
I also unplugged the printer for over an hour in case it was simply overheating but it wouldn't re-boot after that either.
Any suggestions?

This is as far as it loads.

HP LaserJet Pro 100 functioned printer M175nw cleaning every night

I have a
HP LaserJet Pro 100 multifunctionele kleurenprinter M175nw. Runs fine in a wireless network.
The printer is used some times but also a week not at all. After 15 min the printer goes into sleep mode and after two hours or so the device switches off except the green standby light for receiving new wireless jobs.
Problem i have is that nearby every night the printer runs with a lot of noise, in the middle of the night. It looks like he is cleaning the drums or turning the cartridges or the drum. It SOUNDS like he is prepairing for printing but there is no job at all. After a few minutes the device stops and goes back to sleep. I am doiing it also than.
Is this a service property of this machine and can i switch it off? It takes energy and wakes me up!

Hi @jeroegro,
I see that the printer is going into a cleaning mode in the evening and you would like to be able to turn this service off.
I can help you today.
I couldn't find any settings through the printers control panel to turn this service off.
Either turn the printer off manually or you can set the printer to power off after so many hours, through the menus.
Go to Setup, System Setup menu, (wrench button) Energy Settings, Auto Power Down, set the time.
Have a nice day!
