Laserjet 200 color mfp m276nw print black not grayscale

I'm told the printer will print even black-and-white documents using "grayscale," which I'm told means it is using the color cartridges even to print black and white documents. Is there some way I can change this so that it prints black and white documents with only the black ink cartridge? I'm using Mac.

Hi Balderol,
I understand you would like to print black only. I found a document that will help guide you through the steps to set your print settings. This document says it is for 10.3 an d10.4, but the instructions will apply to the newer Mac versions as well. Mac OS X: Printing with the Black Print Cartridge Only Option.
I hope this is helpful.

LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly

Hello, I'm having an issue with a LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly. I have followed the instructions to reset the printer, but now am unable to select 'English' as my language because every time I select the 'English' option 'Spanish' is selected. I am then given two options to select 'Si' or 'No' both of which can not be selected on the touch screen?
Anybody know of a way round this?

Hi @dnhowes ,
I see that you are having issues with the touch screen not working correctly. I will do my best to help you.
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.
Was it the Nvram reset back to factory settings that you tried or a hard reset?
Try selecting the option on the display a little higher above the icon to see if that helps. Some touch screens are finicky.
I find that on the Lab printers when I am selecting different menus.

HP LaserJet 200 color MFP M276nw - cannot connect

Hello,
Installed a HP LaserJet 200 color MFP M276nw on a Windows 7 system with no issues. Then added the "device" / printer on two Windows tablets, with no issues. I was able to print from all three devices. The tablets cannot 'find' the printer.
I then added the printer to another Windows 7 system and now cannot connect from the other systems. I am still able to print from the second Windows 7 system. (I removed the printer from the second Windows 7 system and readded it without issue, and ensured Share the Printer was selected).
Please advise. Should I just return the printer?

LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw prints image shifted 1/2" from top of page.

When printing any report, diagnostic or form from the machine system I get printed image shift approx. 1/2" from the top.
Is there any adjustment that can be made to the MFP to center image?

Hi @patrick22152,
I understand that when printing documents or a printer hardware self test, it shifts 1/2" from the top of the page. I can help you with this.
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.
It sounds like the paper isn't feeding properly. Since you are having this issue with the hardware tests and printing from the computer. If it was just the computer, I would check the paper type selected in the print driver, to make sure it isn't set on the proper paper type and not the default unspecified paper.
Try another type of paper to see if you get the same results.
I have provided a document with some steps to try to see if that will resolve the issue.
'Load Paper' Error Message Displays and the Printer Does Not Pick Up or Feed Paper.
Disregard the title.
Here is a example of how the Configuration Report should look like.
Printing a Configuration Report.
Run a cleaning page:
From the Home screen, touch the Setup button.
Touch the Service menu.
Touch the Cleaning Page button.
Load plain letter or A4 paper when you are prompted.
Touch the OK button to begin the cleaning process.

Network Configuration for HP LaserJet 200 color MFP M276nw

Can the HP LaserJet 200 M276nw can be configured to scan to a network folder without initial set-up from a PC? Without the need of initially connecting the device to a computer first.
We are running a virtual environtment and the printer will need to scan to a configured network folder and this should be done via the device. Of course folder permisisons will be completed prior. I believe I saw a manual where the Embeded web server had this configuration, but would to make sure prior to committing to the purchase. Thanks in advance.
This question was solved.

Hp laserjet pro 200 color mfp m276nw no print preview

Hello Folks,
I have windows 7 64 bit HP laserjet pro 200 color mfp m276nw and do not see a print preview option. Is there a way to get this? In Linux I use print to ps file and ghostscript to view. Our oldink jet had a print preview option. I did see a message for another printer that there is no solution. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
timkat

Hi @Timkat ,
I understand that you would like to know if the printer has a print preview option. I can help you.
You would have to use the print preview, from the application that you are printing from, under File, Print Preview.
Most applications have this feature.
Hope this helps.
Have a nice day!

HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color MFP M276nw: cannot install on Windows XP Professional 64-bit

Hi all,
I am trying to install (via USB) the printing driver for my HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color MFP M276nw printer, but my operating system is Windows XP Professional 64-bit, Service Pack 2. The installer stops with an error saying that the system is not supported. Are there any basic drivers available to fix this problem, or do I necessarily need to upgrade my OS?
Thank you,
Alessio

XP 64-bit is not supported. (see system requirements)
Now is a good time to consider a O/S upgrade because of the end of life come April/2014 for Windows XP.

Win XP 64 driver for hp laserjet pro 200 color mfp m276nw

Hi, any workaround for using this printer under XP-64?
Maybe driver rename or compatible generic?
Just bought it, unpacked, connected - and found out that XP 64 is not supported.
Now what? Return in disgust and buy Cannon or Minolta again, as they support all OS?

Hp Laserjet pro 200 color MFP M276nw

Im having an issue with the installation of the software and the scanning of the printer. When i try to do a full install it goes well up to the part where i have to reconnect to usb port to my computer, at that point the installation starts to go very, very slow. When it get to 99% it gives me a fatal error saying i have to restart my computor and do the process again. i have done it multiple times with no success. I followed by going online and getting the drivers from HP and did the installations individually. I am finally able to print. When i go to scan a documents i only get 3 options on the printer: scan to usb, scan to network and scan to wireless. I dont have anyother options and i have downloaded the drivers for the scanner. I dont know what to do anymore.
Thank you

Hi @HPuser84,
I will do my best to help you be able to scan with the Laserjet pro 200 color MFP M276nw printer.
There are only 3 options from the printer to scan to, scanning to PC isn't a option with this model, if you want to scan from the computer, you would have to use the HP Scan Software on the computer.
I have provided a document for how to scan through the HP Software and from the printer's control panel.
Scan from Windows 7 With the Full Feature HP Software for HP LaserJet Multifunction Printers.
Scan From the Control Panel (Including Scan to Email, to a PDF, and to a Network Folder) for HP Lase...
If the scanning software and drivers still didn't fully install and you had the fatal error again, uninstall the software.
Disconnect the USB cable first. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Then start the installation again, immediately follow the steps in this document after connecting the USB cable please.
A Fatal Error Displays During Software Installation. Disregard the printer model. This should allow the software to fully install properly.
Please let me know if you require any additional assistance.
Have a fantastic day!

HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw - No Embedded Web Server (Port 80 not even showing open)

The embedded web server on our LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw is not responding and a port scan of the printer shows that port 80 is not open. We have power cycled the printer and that did not resolve the issue.
Is there a way to check the status of the embedded web server through the control panel on the printer?
Are there any other steps we can take to restore the embedded web server?
Thanks in advance.

Hello csandrews68,
I see you have an LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw that the Embedded Web Server will not load, port 80 shows as closed.
I suggest restoring the network defaults on the printer:
From the home screen on the printer push Setup (wrench and gear icon)
Go to and select Network Setup
Push Restore Defaults
With defaults restored, connect the printer back to the network and try to load the EWS.
Let me know if that helped.
Thanks,
JERENDS
