Laserjet pro 300

I installed LaserJet Pro 300 with Windows 8 and it worked great for several months.  Upgraded to 8.1 and have experienced problems everyday.  The print queue won't clear when I delete documents; starting and stopping the spooler doesn't clear the queue and shutting off the printer and restarting doesn't always work either.  Have received message from HP multiple times to Reinstall HPLJ300-400 color MFP M375-M475 -- to use this printer with Windows 8.1, you must reinstall it using the original installation media or download files.  Done, DOne and DONE!  Nothing works. . .when is this known issue going to be fixed and a patch available. 

Hi Grills,

  • LaserJet Pro 300 M351A Wireless Accessory?

    On the HP website it clearly states that my printer (HP LaserJet Pro 300 color M351) DOES have a "wireless capability" ...
    This statement is to be found under the "Technical Details" section in the paragraph entitled "Connectivity and Communications":
    Wireless capability - Optional, enabled with purchase of a hardware accessory
     I've Googled high and low and I cannot find out:
    What is meant by "a hardware accessory"
     Is it a print server device? Is it a wireless usb adapter? What?
     I have an urgent need to add this device to a small wirless network, but I can't figure oyt how to?
    Please help - anyone?

    Hi,
    Wireless optionality is available with the HP Jetdirect ew2500 802.11b/g Wireless Print Server (J8021A), that can be found listed within the Supplies and Accessories section below:

  • HP Laserjet Pro 300 won't power up fully

    I've had an HP Laserjet Pro 300 for 4 months and I haven't had any issues until today.
    I ran a few scans without issue and then in the middle of a scan, it just quit scanning. It seems to have lost connectivity. 
    I shut the printer down and attempted to re-boot it. It started booting then it quit shortly afterward and didn't finish booting. The power is up but it doesn't load fully. 
    I have tried rebooting the computer connected to the printer and I have unplugged the power cord and printer connection and attempted to re-boot the printer several times but it has been the same result for a couple of hours.
    I also unplugged the printer for over an hour in case it was simply overheating but it wouldn't re-boot after that either.
    Any suggestions?

    This is as far as it loads.

  • Can I get an HP Laserjet pro 300 Color laserjet multifunction printer to work in OSX 10.7.5.  the disk says it only supports OS.6

    Help. I just purchased an HP Laserjet Pro 300 multifunction laserjet printer for a new home office. I tried to load it on my Macbook Pro which has the OSX 10.7.5 operating system and the disk says it only goes to OSX 10.6.  Do I need to return this heavy printer? 

    Ditch the disk.
    If the Mac is up to date with all system updates, it probably is already carrying all it needs to talk to the printer. Just open the Print & Scan perfpane in System Preferences and get the two talking (USB: plug it in, Network: type in the IP address, if the Mac hasn't discovered it already), give it a few seconds and just confirm the correct model has been chosen. Many times the printer will pop up in the list on its own accord, else use the plus ( + ) button to add manually. Holler if you need more help.

  • Set up for scan to email for Laserjet pro 300 MFP M 375nw

    I am trying to set up a scan to email on my Laserjet pro 300 MFP M 375 and with my IP for my computer, I get as far as filling out the required forms.  All is well until I have to enter a password.  It will be rejected.  I have forgotten the password I initially used.  I would like to know how I can remedy the situation and insert a new password.  NO one seems to be able to help with this problem

    Greetings , I may be able to help you with renaming your scans. Now, I was not able to find any setting that would automatically increase the scan numbers when using the Scan to Email settings. If you use the Scan to Computer option it will number them the way you are describing; Scan0001, Scan0002, ect... That being said, you are able to manually rename the scan file during the Scan to Email process.When you choose Scan then EmailThen choose you outgoing email profileYou should see a Settings button on the bottom left of the display screenScroll through options and select the one that says FilenameEdit the scan file name using the onscreen keyboard Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help.  I look forward to hearing from you!  Thanks, 

  • 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 300/400 (M375nw & M475dn) - Driver packages will not install

    Hello all,
    I need some assistance with a very persistent and frustrating issue trying to get driver software packages for our LaserJet M375nw & M475dn to install correctly. We are running Windows 7 Pro x64 on HP 8300 desktop PCs.
    We have these printers printing properly via our print server and the proper .inf driver but need the ability to scan to the PC. I would like to install the HP-provided software packages (which include the Scan driver & utility) but am running into the error below.
    "A problem occurred while preparing to install software to your system. Please restart your computer, and run this installer again. If the problem persists, please check the product support web site for your product."
    I get this error at 80% in the "preparing to install" process. I am using the latest drivers from the website for each of these models (which actually use the same package). I have tried both the Full and Basic driver package with the same results.
    We have these printers installed via a static IP on the Network, not USB. I am trying to install as a Local Administrator. UAC is disabled. The PC is fully updated and doesn't have much in the way of custom software. It has SCCM client, MS SQL Native Client, Google Earth, Adobe, Trend Micro AV, OnBase, Office 2007 and Chrome installed.
    Here are some of the things I've tried w/o success:
    Tried installing with latest drivers from HP website
    Ran all Windows updates
    Ran the Scrubber uninstaller provided in the package / Running "uninstall" executable from HP software
    Disabled all non-MS startup programs/services in msconfig, disabled Antivirus, rebooted, tried to again
    Restarting computer (many, many times between different troubleshooting steps)
    Tried disabling "Smart Install" (though I think this only applies to USB connections)
    Checked print spooler - it indeed is started/running properly
    Uninstalled all HP-branded software
    Can any of you offer some help please? I'm not sure what to try next.
    Some other posts I've looked at w/ no success are:

  • HP laserjet Pro 300 m375nw Wireless printing is fine but "can't find scanner"

    I have recently got an HP Laser Jet Pro colour MFP M375nw.
    It installed perfectly on both my Win 7 laptop and on my Mac and I can print wirelessly without issues from either device or from tablets and phones.
    however, when I try and scan it says it can't communicate with the printer.
    When I try and run any utility (Hp print and scan doctor,  device toolbox, etc.) it says that it can't communicate with the scanner/printer.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled but am at a loss how to fix this. Any ideas please?

    Hi!
    I have tried everything that I can to print 2-sided on this printer.  Once in a while it works, but mostly I fail.  Today trying to print my 84 pages of Tax forms, it would send to the printer and then it would just disappear!
    I have tried calling HP a coiple of times, and after the long waits, I am told that they are Windows Help desk and I need to call the Mac desk, where I have left voicemails and no response.
    Can someone please tell me how to print Duplex with this printer?

  • 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)

  • LaserJet Pro 300 color MFP automatic document feeder - page stops feeding with 1" to go

    Scan page won't finish feeding when using the automatic document feeder.  Leaves approximately the last 1 to 2 inches of paper in the scanner. The Scan ADF Paper Jam error message pops up.  Seems like the page hangs/gets stuck  once the page passes through the document feeder roller assembly.  Haven't been able to find any information on what moves the paper through the scanner once it gets past this roller assembly.

  • HP Laserjet Pro 400 MFP M425dn - Will not work via wireless; is ePrint an option for this product?

    We can print with USB plugged in but wireless shows as offline and obviously doesn't print.
    On the listed products that use ePrint, the 400 Laserjet series is listed for Color only. This is not a color unit.

    @burgergal 
    The HP Laserjer Pro 400 m425dn unit that you are listing is capable of ePrint however it is only a duplex, networking unit...not wireless. It is a black (mono) unit, not color.
