Is there a way to reset the printer (laserjet pro 300 color mfp)

So I've had alllllll sorts of problems with my all-in-one.  Often when I try to scan, it won't work, saying that it can't find the printer.  Same when trying to print.  I figured it was some sort of connectivity issue.  I connect via my wifi network.  So I tried to remove the software from my Macbook and now when I try to reinstall it, it can't find my printer.  So I hook it up with a USB cord.  Now it sees the printer, but it stalls out and won't connect... most of the time.  At one point I got as far as the porting over my macbooks network settings over to the HP printer, but then it stalled out there.  Any way to do a hard reset of the HP printer?  I feel like something is going on with it's wifi abilities.

If it's really the colors, you can calibrate them using System Preferences Displays pane Color tab.
If it's actually the brightness, you cannot adjust it any brighter than the control allows on System Preferences Displays pane Display tab. The CCFL lamps used for the backlight do decrease in brightness over time (unless they are the new LED type found in some of the newer MacBooks and Cinema display)

  • Unable to install the scanner on the HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw in windows 7 64 bit

    Hi @Chembo ,
    I see you're experiencing issues installing the printer software. I will do my best to assist you with this issue.
    I would disable all the start up programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software and any Real Time Scanning in the Antivirus Software also, to see if that is causing the 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.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • HP LaserJet Pro 300 color MFP runs cleaning and Mis Prints Error with Printing above 5 pages

    I have an HP Pro 300 Printer with New genuine cartridges. But when I print or make copies of multi page jobs it always comes up with a message on the screen which says "cleaning"  and then give a "Mis Printer Error".The printer is out of warranty. The Print quality is excellent but the error it gives all the time is a major problem. Has anyone solution for this? Please help! Thanks  

    Restoring the defaults doesnt usually purge out the memory of a printer.  You need a cold reset to complete that proceedure. Cold Reset steps:http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Issues-Troubleshooting/HP-LaserJet-Pro-200-color-MFP-M276nw-Cold-reset/td-p/5060955 The video at the bottom of the first page is very helpful.

  • 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.

  • 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,
    JERENDS

    I figured that was the case, but I've used the same passcode for years and I can't seem to figure out how I managed to screw it up when I set up my phone. Without being able to access my phone for a restore, how would I accomplish this? iTunes? Thank you very much for you help!

  • TS1369 i have a screen with the apple logo on it and a bar underneath it. it has been this way for about an hour now. what does this mean and is there a way to reset the iphone without going into the store? it isnt showing in my computer or on the itunes

    i have a screen with the apple logo on it and a bar underneath it. it has been this way for about an hour now. what does this mean and is there a way to reset the iphone without going into the store? it isnt showing in my computer or on the itunes page.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    No, Apple can't help.  Just connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes. If necessary, place the iPod in recovery mode.  For that mode see:

  • Is there any way to stop the print screen from dropping down on top of the page to be printed.  Can the print screen be moved?

    Is there a way to stop the print screen from dropping down on top of the page to be printed.  Can the print screen be moved?  When the print screen drops down, it covers the page and the info needed to create the file.  Thank you

    You will find that this is application dependent.  Most Apple applications such as Safari and Mail will use the "sheet" type of dialog boxes that you are referring.  There is no way for the user to change that behavior.  Other, non-Apple, applications like Firefox use a "modal" dialog box for printing etc.  The modal boxes can be moved around so you can see the page behind.

    Thanks for replying (thorvsphoenix)
    The windex was sprayed on the cloth, not the keyboard. And only one or two pumps on a hand towel. No liquid seeped between the keys the towel was barely damp. You are saying the ammonia gas created the problem?
    I think It was more an issue of multiple keys being depressed at the same time that screwed up the configuration. That is why I need to "reboot" the keyboard.
