Laserjet CP1217 - unable to find toolbox.

Having lost the installation disc, I have been unable to find a copy of the HP toolbox to download absolutely anywhere.
If anyone can help, I would be very grateful as I desperately need to carry out a "clean" of my printer.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks you for your reply.
However, if you actually look at the link you sent me, you will see that the Toolbox is not there.  
That is the whole point of my post - the toolbox is not available on the HP website and they want me to spend £15 just to speak to someone about it.
I have written to the UK's CEO to complain about being asked to pay just to get a file that was on the original disk and I have now had three replies from them saying we can help you with your complaint if you call this number and pay £15 for support..  Really frustrating.
I guess I will just have to give up on getting this file.  Fifteen pounds might not seem much but I can not justify spending that amount on what is a spare printer when such items are now so cheap to purchase.

  • Airprint unable to find HP Laserjet 1536dnf via Zyxel P-660HN-F1z

    Airprint is very disappointed. I recently baught *HP Laserjet 1536dnf* *which Apple and HP says it is Airprint enabled* only to find that it doesn't work. And I think both Apple and HP may blame it on Zyxel but the one who is frustrating is a customer like me. If anyone can help me ... please.
    _Here's my configurarition._
    Device: Macbook pro, HP Pavilion, iPhone 3GS (iOS4.3), iPad 1 (iOS4.3)
    Printer: HP LaserJet 1536dnf (latest firmware 20101125)
    Router: ZyXel P-660HN-F1z (latest firmware Version: 3.70(BJI.4) | 03/22/2010)
    Network Setting: All are in the same network 192.168.1.x
    _Here's my problems._
    Printer works fine with notebooks (wired) but not iPhone and iPad (wireless). I have tried many settings and after rebooting my router and printer I will occasionally be able to print from either iPhone or iPad but never from both. Most of the time, iPhone and iPad show "unable to find printer"
    _My tests were._
    - Update all device to latest firmware
    - Reseting router and printer
    - Deactivate my firewall
    - Setting my printer to a fixed IP
    - Setting log in my router (and I don't understand it!)
    - etc
    None of them works.
    I guess I may have to do something like openning port for Banjour or some apple services on my router but I really don't know what to do or how to do it.
    I'd appreciate if anyone can help or *share the router setting* that works for your airprint.

    Though I cannot really understand your language, I guess it'd be the same that I just found out today. Anyway, thanks to DaniSan77.
    In summary,
    1) I reset my Zyxel router to make sure that I didn't make any unnecessary changes. (you may try below first before reseting yours).
    2) Under Zyxel menu Network > LAN > Advance Setup, I change the Multicast to IGMP-V3. This time I leave other fields untouched, so  RIP direction is set to None and RIP version is N/A.
    3) Under menu Wireless LAN > Advance Setup, I uncheck the IGMP Snooping.
    4) Turn on my HP printer and reboot both iPhone and iPad
    Now I can print normally from mac and pc and also print from iphone and ipad via AirPrint.

  • HP ENVY 4501 e-All-in-O​ne: Unable to Find Printer

    I just recently got a HP ENVY 4501 e-All-in-One.  The printer is connected wirelessly to my router but after I installed the software, it was unable to find the printer.  I have tried it on 3 different computers.  2 with Windows 7 and the other with Windows Vista.  How can I get the computers to find the printer? Also, can a  Linux system also use the printer? 
    Thanks. 

    Hi blanchard10,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having some installation issues.
    Just so you are aware, no Linux driver is available for this printer at this time.
    I do have a few steps that we can try in the attempt to install the printer on to your Windows 7 and Vista computers.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Seeing that you are attempting to install the printer with a wireless connection, we do need to have the software and drivers installed on to each computer.
    Here is the HP ENVY 4500 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers.
    Please make sure that you do NOT have any firewalls or anti virus protection running while doing the installation.
    Save the download to the Desktop of the computers so that it creates its own icon.  This will make it easy to find the download when it is completed on each computer.  Double click the new icon and follow the installation instructions.  The installation will give you connection options.  Select wireless.
    On the front panel of the printer, we will need to go through the Wireless Setup Wizard.  To get to the Wizard we will need to be on the main display of the printer and touch the Wireless icon on the top of the printer window.  Select Settings and then select the Wireless Setup Wizard and follow the instructions to connect to the network.  You will need the IP address once the printer is connected to add to each computer when prompted to do so.
    Please write me back if you are still having issues or if you have any other questions.

    Anoop,
    This is a JTT page and there is no VO. If you wanna see how this report is built check out qotSCocPrint.jsp. Here data source are quoting classes. If u need any quoting related data y do u worry about source, y don't u directly hit quoting tables like aso_quote_headers_all and aso_quote_lines_all.

  • Photoshop unable to find Java script plugin

    Since the last ACR update to PSCS6, I am unable to browse in Bridge or Mini Bridge and I get the error message "Could not complete the Browse in Bridge Command because Photoshop was unable to find the JavaScript plugin". When I try to open mini bridge, it will open but there is the error message: "Could not complete the command because the extension could not be loaded". I have tried a system restore and read all of the posts related to this error but no one seems to come up with an answer. I tried pasting the .dll files recommended in another post but that did not help. I tried the suggestion to run PS as an administrator but that did not work. I have searched the web, many people have this problem but very few answers, as per usual with Adobe. Using PSCS6 x64 with Windows7x64. Need help!

    My mind reading abilities are a bit fuzzy today.
    I can't seem to read what version of Photoshop, what computer, what OS you are using?

  • Unable to find Bean and AM impl for customisation of Fusion Application

    Hi,
    Iam navigating through this link
    under Fusion App --> Navigator -->WarehouseOperation -->REceipts --> and Entering createReceipt screen via Receive Expected Shipments. I want to default the value of packing slip as how supplier got defaulted but in editable mode. For this i want to know how supplier got defaulted and in same way i want to default Packing slip number.
    But iam unable to find the managed bean or AMimpl java file for doing code change.
    "Copylines" is default activity and from there it is navigating to CreateReceipt.jsff, i don't find any parameter carrying the value for Supplier.
    So Logic must be either in Managed Bean or in AmImpl . I need to include my logic also here. But unable to find the necessary file.
    reg,
    Lakshmi.

    While creating a receipt, you select one or more orders belonging to a single supplier and then create one receipt against that. And that is how the supplier field gets defaulted in the Create Receipt UI.
    Packing slip is also defaulted when the user receives against ASN provided it is captured at the time of creation of the ASN.
    For a regular PO receipt, the user is expected to enter the packing slip by default.
    Can you describe your exact requirement in detail?
    The customization framework does allow the value of a field to be overwritten but using this, you will always have a predefined value or some limited logic using EL.
    But we would not recommend that because when you customize the value of a field, it will discard the value that is fetched from the database.
    This can potentially break the default functionality of receiving where the packing slip is defaulted from the ASN.
    And another question that I have is the need for the AM details - this particular code is present in the AM and not the managed bean.
    Are you planning to extend the AM that is shipped by receiving?

  • Type-mapping not working correctly, get "Unable to find a javaType for the xmlType" WARNING

    I'm manually creating a web-services.xml file, and using the autogen ant task to
    generate the codec XML/Java classes. The XML definition is provided by SAP.
    The ant build.xml file:
    <project name="buildWebservice" default="stubgen">
    <target name="stubgen">
    <clientgen ear="C:\projects\RMIS\ifrrequests\RMIS.ear"
    packageName="com.aa.rmis.webservice.client"
    clientJar="C:\projects\RMIS\ifrrequests\rmisws-client.jar"
    autotype="False" />
    </target>
    <target name="all" depends="stubgen"/>
    </project>
    The problem is seen below in the output from Ant. Note the WARNINIG. The problem
    is that the xml type cannot be mapped to the Java type.
    C:\projects\RMIS\ifrrequests>ant -buildfile clientbuild.xml
    Buildfile: clientbuild.xml
    stubgen:
    [clientgen] Generating client jar for RMIS.ear ...
    [clientgen] WARNINIG: Unable to find a javaType for the xmlType:['urn:sap-com:do

    [clientgen] Building jar: C:\projects\RMIS\ifrrequests\rmisws-client.jar
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL
    Total time: 17 seconds
    The Java source that has the implementation of the service methods is simply:
    package com.aa.rmis.webservice;
    import com.aa.rmis.ifr.request.*;
    public class TestService
    public TestService()
    public int serviceRequest(PaymentRequestCreate request)
    System.out.println("Received serviceRequest message");
    return 0;
    public void testStringRequest(String request)
    The web-service.xml file is attached, which contains the schema for the SAP PaymentRequest.Create
    object definition.
    Another problem I have, which is probably related, is that the service method
    that has a complex data type (non-built in data type) is not being deployed into
    the WebLogic server. But the other service method that simply takes a String
    parameter is.
    The steps I took are:
    1. Get XML from SAP Interface Repository (IFR) for PaymentRequest
    2. Use ant task autogen to generate the request codec classes
    3. Create the web-services.xml file by inserting the schema definition and the
    mapping file created by the autogen task, and defining the operations
    4. Build web-services.war file that contains all autogen compiled class files,
    the web-services.xml file, and the service implementation class
    5. Build the ear file that holds the web service files
    6. Use the clientgen ant task to generate (included above) to generate the client
    jar file that should contain the proxy for both of the service methods
    Environment:
    * WebLogic 7.02
    * JDK 1.3.1_06
    * JBuilder 9 Enterprise
    * Ant 1.4
    Possible causes:
    * Namespace not being used correctly
    * copied verbatim the mapping xml file generated by autogen into the web-services.xml
    file
    * xml-schema part of web-services.xml might not be set correctly
    * operation definition might not be using the correct namespace
    * Classpath used for ant might not be right
    * Doubt this is the problem, but I'm out of other ideas
    * Set by using the setWLEnv.cmd file provided by WebLogic
    * Tried adding the generated classes directory for my project to the classpath,
    but did not work
    I've been referencing the Programming WebLogic Web Services document throughout
    this entire process. I must be missing something.
    Can anybody from BEA help me out with this problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    [web-services.xml]

    Hi JD,
    I spent a few cycles looking over your web-services.xml file, however I
    don't have any suggestions other that one that looks like you have
    already tried, at the top, in the <schema...>
    targetNamespace="urn:sap-com:document:sap:business"
    Making edits to these generated files can be tricky and my only
    suggestion is to create a small reproducer to run by our outstanding
    support team.
    A quick look at our problem database shows one issue (CR095109) related
    to a similar problem at deploy time that was fixed with 7.0SP3. Again,
    the support folks will be able to help focus in on the issue.
    Regards,
    Bruce

  • Hi, I am using my icloud on my iphone but am unable to find it on my mac book pro. It's not under my system preferences like it shows under the setup. Can I download it again? Or something. I just need to backup some files on my computer and am unable.

    Hi, I am using my icloud on my iphone but am unable to find it on my mac book pro. It's not under my system preferences like it shows under the setup. Can I download it again? Or something. I just need to backup some files on my computer and am unable.

    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

  • My MacBook Pro stated that it needed to be updated. I clicked yes to restart the computer and update but when it restarted it stays on the gray screen with the apple logo and then pops up, stating "unable to find driver for this platform." What do I do?

    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.
    When the Mac OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the Mac OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac didn’t ship with Lion, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
    Don't install the Thunderbolt update -- it's defective.

  • Problem with Java keystore and certificates (unable to find valid cert path

    Our program is made so that when a certificate is not signed by a trusted Certification Authority, it will ask the user if he/her wishes to trust the certificate or not. If they decide to trust the certificate, it will accept the self signed certificate and import it into the keystore and then use that certificate to log the user in. This works fine. It will import the certificate into the keystore and use the specified ip address to establish a connection with the LDAP server (Active Directory in our case) and authenticate properly. However, the problem arises when we then try and connect to a different ip address (without restarting tomcat, if we restart tomcat, it works fine...). It imports the certificate into the keystore fine, but always gives the exception
    "Root exception is javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target"
    and does not authenticate with our LDAP server (which is Active Directory). The problem seems to be that it is no longer looking at the System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", myTrustStore);
    I have tried multiple times to just reset this property and try and "force" it to read from my specified trust file when this error happens. I have also imported the certificates directly into the <java_home>/jre/lib/security/cacerts and <java_home>/jre/lib/security/jssecacerts directories as the java documentation says that it will look at those directories first to see if it can find a trusted certificate. However, this does not work either. The only way that I can get this to work is by restarting tomcat all together.
    If both of the certificates are already in the keystore before tomcat is started up, everything will work perfect. Again, the only problem is after first connecting to an IP address using TLS and importing the certificate, and then trying to connect to another IP address with a different certificate and import it into the keystore.
    One of the interesting features of this is that after the second IP address has failed, I can change the IP address back to the first one that authenticated successfully and authenticate successfully again (ie
    I use ip 1.1.1.1, import self signed certificate, authenticates successfully
    login with ip 2.2.2.2 import self signed certificate, FAILS
    login again with 1.1.1.1 (doesn't import certificate because it is already in keystore) successfully authenticates
    Also, I am using java 1.5.0_03.
    Any help is greatly appreciated as I've been trying to figure this out for over a week now.
    Thanks

  • My Macbook Pro Won't boot. Unable to find the driver for this platform

    Hi there,
    After doing some casual internet browsing earlier today (facebook + twitter etc) my laptop froze up. While I was able to click between windows, the ever faithful beach ball was there to ensure I couldn't really do anything, including making the dock appear when mousing towards the bottom. So I held down the power button to shut it down, and restarted. After the apple logo had sat there for quite some time I got a message something along the lines of:
              Unable to find driver for this platform:\"ACPI\".In"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1699.32.7/iokit/kernel
    This was followed by a message telling me I needed to restart my computer using the power button. After several attempts all producing the same results, I was still in the same boat. So I sought some online help which lead me to boot into my recovery partition (holding down the option key at startup) and install the operating system again from there. However this is when I really started to panic. After selecting the recoverey partition the apple logo flipped between a no access symbol (that circle with a line through it) and the apple logo for a couple of seconds, before settling on the apple logo. But the recovery partition never loads and after some time I either get a symbol of a folder with a question mark in it or I similar message telling me to restart.
    Next I tried plugging in my external hard drive with a few time machine backups as well as a carbon copy back up and another recovery partition. Using the external HD's recovery partition took me to a menu which the online help had initially promised where I could reinstall osx as well as use disc utitlity. So I tried to run the installer from here only to find my hard drive didn't show up in the list of destination volumes. The time machine and recovery partitions from my hard drives did, but I couldn't select these.
    I then turned my attention to the disc utility and tried to repair my hard drive. I was unsure which one to select at first because there were two names for my hard drive; the first being the hard drives actual name (a samsung something or other) and the second was called 'Lion.' I started by repairing the samsung one and this was over in a few seconds saying it was successfully repaired. So I moved on to 'Lion' and this took a few moments, before stalling on a section saying "Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required." I was also advised to recover any data I could and restore I backup.
    So that's where I'm currently at. I'd really hate to lose any recent data, as my last time machine back up was about a week ago and I'd made some substantial progress on a mix since then!
    I'd really appreciate any help that anyone can offer,
    Cheers!

    Just had another look in the disc utility and found that the samsung's partition scheme is set to master boot record, which is apprently used for windows partitions? I've no idea how this happend because When I originally formatted the drive I'm sure I would have set it to GUID partition table. Clicking on 'Lion' just gives dashes for the partition type, capacity and available space values.
