HP M1217NFW SCAN?

THE M1536DNF AT WORK ALREADY HAS UPDATED 10.8 DRIVERS BUT M1217NFW DOESN'T... IS APPLE WORKING ON IT?

Hi,
Any Mountain Lion drivers are not yet available for your product, currently only printing is supported through the network using AirPrint which does not require any drivers...
I hope a full solution will become available shortly.
To add, although the drivers being distributed by Apple via Apple Software Update, the drivers for any HP product being developed by HP..
In the meantime you may use the 10.7 software to scan, although it is not officially supported it should work by my experience, it should allow you ull functionality till there an updated software will become available...
Download and run the 10.7 software below:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=Im-80903-5 &cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=219&product=4075472&sw_lang=
From the HP Laserjet window click the printer model to launch the installer.
If the installer cannot be opened because it is from unidentified developer, right click (or CTRL+Left click) the printer model and select Open.
Confirm any prompt and the installation and you should be able to scan using the HP Scan application within the Applications\HP Laser MFP folder..

Failed to Open a Session on the Device - scanning from Mac OSX 10.9.3 - M1217nfw

Hello,
I'm running into some issues scanning wirelessly from our HP LaserJet M1217nfw MFP from any Mac running 10.9.3. I've tried to "Reset Printing System" and re-adding the printer with no success. Each time I open either Preview/Printers & Scanners/Image Capture, I receive the following error message: "Failed to Open a Session on the Device." When I add the printer, I do so by selecting the "+" icon, and selecting "Add Printer or Scanner..." selecting the printer from the list listed via bonjour, and "Select the software" but my model printer is not listed. The closest printer listed is HP LaserJet Professional M1210nf MPF Series, but it doesn't work. Any ideas here?

Welcome to the HP Forums jpuebla,
I see by your post that you are having issues scanning, you aren't able find the drivers to add the printer.
I can help you with this issue.
The drivers for Maverick are the Apple Update drivers.
OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
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, then select the printer from the list and click on the Add button.
(make sure it shows the printer name beside Use, not the Airprint driver)
You might have to run the Apple Updates again with USB cable connected to get the drivers installed.
Then try and add the bonjour printer again.
Test the printer again.
If you are having network issues, then add the printer through the IPProtocal.
After clicking the + button, select the IP icon across the top, type in the printer's IP address, select jet direct below and then Apply.
Test the printer.
I have seen the HP Printer Drivers v.2.16.1 for OS X drivers work successfully, if the issue persists.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

AiO Remote app on iPad/iPhone does not find M1217nfw

Hi,
I have a M1217nfw setup on my WiFi network. I can use Airprint from my iPad or iPhone to print on it - works fine. However I want to use the AiO Remote app on my iPad or iPhone to scan documents from this printer to my iPad/iPhone.
The problem is that when I try to use the app it tells me that it cannot find any printer! I upgraded the firmware on the printer - still no go.
I even tried to connect it using the HP Wireless Direct options - still no go.
Treid to connect using the printer's IP address - still no go.
According to the document http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docLocale=en_US&docId=emr_na-c03843137&sp4ts.oid=2... - the M1217nfw is supported by the AiO Remote app.
Any help or clues would be greatly appreciated!
thanks,
vijar

Hi @vijar,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you would like to learn more about HP’s All-in-One Printer Remote app.
I have included the HP All-in-One Printer Remote Mobile App FAQs document. It has a section dedicated to the printers that support this app and the Laserjet 1217nfw printer is not supported by the app. I have notified the appropriate department regarding the document.

I got my first Mac 2 weeks ago, a Macbook Pro. I can't get it to scan on my HP Laserjet1217 nfwMFP all in one. It prints (wirelessly) just fine. But when I try to scan, it says something like "no scanners available". Wireless or connected, it's the same.

I have not been able to get my new Macbook Pro to scan, either wirelessly or connected, with my HP Laserjet all in one M1217 nfwMFP printer. It prints wirelessly just fine, but if I try to scan, I get the message that no scanners are found. The guy in the Apple store had it scanning just fine with a new HP printer he took out of the box. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I would check with HP. Your scanner may need a firmware update and updated HP software. Start here:

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.

Scanning in Mavericks? I can no longer use the scanning function in my HP Officejet 4500. HP says to go through Preview, Image Capture, or Print/Scan in System Prefs. Still doesn't work. Any ideas/similar experiences?

Sure it is, yet it's called HP LaserJet Professional M1210nf MFP Series *
Today, I followed your other advice, and deleted the printer, deleted the /Library/Printer/hp folder, downloaded the entire set of driver, re-installed the printer twice, once with the driver, once with Bonjour.
The Bonjour Printer has the scan option active, but it is doesn't work (refer to above.), it is called M1217nfw
The Apple Driver Printer doesn't show the scan option at all, it is called M1217nf (as on the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP list.) This model number doesn't exist, as far as I can tell.
Still, everything works perfectly in Snow Leopard, for a MF printer that has been manufactured years after Snow Leopard was released.
Why going up in software version means going backwards in compatiblity for brand new product is really the question that puzzles me here.

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..

Shlomi

Hp M1217nfw

I have recently installed, via download, the driver and programs for this printer but when I want to scan, I need to go to the "printer and devises" and then to printer properties when I can then choose "scan" but then I can not scan as a PDF. When I had this printer connected to another computer it had a great icon and and I could easily scan in PDF mode. Can anyone assist?

Hello Borrego202,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to select a PDF option when scanning a document using the Laserjet M1217nfw. I will do my best to assist you! First, what is your operating system on your computer? Click here to find out: Windows.
Are you using the HP scan or the HP Laserjet scan? Please follow this HP document on How to Scan: Windows 7 if you are unsure.
Also, how is this printer connected? Wireless or USB?
Please verify this information and I will assist you further. Have a great day!

HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 Color MFP M575 - Can't scan from Windows

We recently purchased and installed an HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 Color MFP M575 to be used as a networked all-in-one solution for a number of offices. I have been able to get it set up on our network and have installed the appropriate drivers on the requested Windows 7 x64 machines, and network printing works perfectly. However, it seems that despite the fancy scanning features available from the all-in-one itself (scan to email, scan to a network folder, etc.), I can't find any way to do an old-fashioned scan from Windows.
I have installed the full software solution available on the driver download page for the device, and while Windows lists the device as a "Multi Function Printer; Scanner" it does not recognize it as an actual scanner. The built-in Windows Fax and Scan simply reports that no scanners are installed. The software installation did not include the HP Solution Center (which I am used to seeing from my experience with various other HP all-in-one devices) or any equivalent for direct scanning. The driver download page for the device does not include any separate scanning drivers, so I can't be certain if they were included with the full installation or exist at all.Some of our staff also use Adobe Acrobat to scan, and even that fails to recognize the MFP as a scanner.
We'll eventually be setting up the device to scan directly to a network folder, but we need a fallback while IT takes their time getting it set up; I can't imagine that the simplest option is not available at all. I must be missing something here, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: To add, I also ran the HP Print and Scan Doctor. Interestingly, it reports the device as a printer and only offers to "Fix Printing" without any sort of resolution for my scanning problem.

There is no change to this problem after 6 months since the last post. Put simply, and as stated in the previous posts, there is no way to scan a document and receive the image on your PC. If you are working with graphics for any length of time or want to create an image for inclusion as an image in a document or web page using this piece of equipment will not allow you to do so.
Great shame as every other function works well - it cannot be beyond the wit of HP to include a Windows application that enables you to scan an image, receive it in the software you are using at the time (e.g. Outlook, Word, Photoshop...) and use it in your work.
HP Printers several years older than this £1000+ Enterprise printer were able to do this simple job and have done so for a great many years. Just being able to use Microsoft's Fax and Scan would be start.

Cannot send email from scanned pages

I am having trouble with the updated HP remote app on Ipad, since the update I can scan the pages in, but then cannot send them via email. This is qute important because i work remotley from the office and rely on getting my design drawings in on a nightly basis
please help

cannot send email from scanned pages

Malicious or not? Message popped up: Mozilla security found (something like too much, forget exact word) activity on your computer so it will do a fast scan of system file. With OK button.

I was looking at youtube.com, which always tells me my browser is not supported and recommends I download Firefox, but that is what I was using, so I went to Firefox to check for updates. (I think I also had freecycle.org open.) Then this message popped up in a new page: Mozilla security found (something like "too much", forget exact word) activity on your computer so it will do a fast scan of system file. There was an OK button. The page address was: http://update17.stegner.ce.ms/index.php?Q7Lhl9ShbRxGJXpkM1VLSi4ZE8H4pTedoVPySgeppM3VpC+thEspcFG7qxHgn1pdsC2h5ygPGWI3t5hXqMzL9EQaZZ3J1e3CKXgCb0Qp. I did not click OK but copied the link and closed the window which closed the internet. I have never seen this before and would like to know if it is really Mozilla or possibly something malicious. Thank you.

Good catch. That almost certainly is an invitation to download malware.
There are a lot of infected web sites pushing "fake antivirus" software. If you have any doubts about whether your system might have become infected, you can supplement your regular security software with these two highly regarded scanners:
Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/

Scanned items go to wrong folder

I was scanning old photos and all at once they were sent to a temp folder not in my Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. Does anyone know what got changed?

Check your preference settings.

HP AiO Remote app will not recognize scan and copy function of HP Envy 120

Good morning! HP AiO Remote App is installed on my iPad4 and in the same WiFi network with my HP Envy 120 printer. The printer is recognized by the app and marked with a green led. When I tap on scan or copy in the app menu, it tells me that these functions were available in the app only for printers which provide these features. But HP Envy 120 has both scanner and copier. And last time it worked. Some idea what could have happened here? Thanks. UJ

Hi UJKarl, welcome to the HP Forums. You should be able to scan from the HP AIO Remote App on your Envy 120 printer. You probably just need to power cycle the printer, iPad and router to regain proper function.
Turn off your printer with the power button. Power down the iPad by holding the sleep button down until you get the option to 'slide to power off'. Then disconnect the power cord to your router and count to about 10, and then plug it back in. Once the router comes back online, turn the printer on. When the printer comes back online (blue wi-fi light stops blinking), then power the iPad back up. Try again, and it should work.
Let me know how it turns out.
