Installed LaserJet M1212nf MFP on new computer. Prints but wont scan.

I just installed Laser Jet M1212nf MFP printer on a new computer.  It installed itself and prints fine.  It wouldnt scan so I downloaded the software from the HP website.  It still doesnt scan.  I don't know what to do next.  My computer doesnt pick up the fact that there is a new scanner. 

Solved my own problem.  the name of the laserjet showed up as 1210 instead of 1212 on my computer.  It still isnt working properly, but at least the new computer recognzes the printer.  Onto the next problem..

  • Sti Error! Video initialize error on HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP

    I'm using HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP all in one printer on Windows 7 32bit.  When i try to scan a document it gives me an error message Sti Error! Video initialize error on my coputer screen. I have re-installed the printer drivers but the problem still persists. I have also used HP Print and Scan Doctor and restarting the device from power cable, this also did not work. I connected it to another computer with windows 7 64bit and it worked perfectly.
    There is however no issue copying or printing only when I try to scan.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hi @SoStoked ,
    I see that you are having issues scanning on the one computer. You are getting the error "Sti Error! Video initialize error".
    I would like to help.
    It sounds like you are having issues with your operating system.
    Did you add any new software or hardware to the computer?
    Try scanning with a 300 DPI and saving it as a JPEG, to see if you have the same results.
    Try scanning from Paint to see if you get the same error.
    What size are you scanning? (DPI)
    How are you saving the scan? (PDF, JPEG)
    I believe that the error might be a issue with your video card drivers. Update the drivers to see if that will help.
    Update the JavaScript and DirectX on the computer.
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, did everything have a green check mark, any error messages)
    What applications have you tried to scan from?
    Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • 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...)

    I have problem with my M1212nf MFP.
    I can't even setup my printer and I get

    hp-setup[20577]: debug: Restart CUPS returned: exit=0 output=
    hp-setup[20577]: debug: addPrinter('HP_LaserJet_Professional_M1212nf_MFP', 'hp:/net/HP_LaserJet_Professional_M1212nf_MFP?zc=NPI8FD5F0', '', '', 'lsb/usr/HP/hp-laserjet_professional_m1212nf_mfp-hpijs.ppd.gz', '')
    hp-setup[20577]: debug: addPrinter() returned (0, Unable to connect to CUPS server)
    I'm very frustrated. I'm running all the mentioned daemons but no luck.

  • Airprint to HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP from Windows

    Hi!
    I have a HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP, and connected it to the network via Ethernet, and was elated when I saw that I could Airprint  (wirelessly) from all 3 iPhones and the iPad in the family!
    I was not very elated when my 3 windows printers can only ePrint by using attached docs to emails, and then only certain formats.   I would expect this lack of funtionality from an Apple specific printer, but not from an HP printer!
    Through Googleing I saw what I thought was the answer: To fool my PC into thinking it can (wirelessly)  print to an airprinter  through the network, but nothing panned out as being that...
    Really disappointed in HP this time.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance
    Joe

    I take that to mean you never deactivated the 2 old machines.  So you're stuck.  You need to contact customer care via online Chat.
