LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP(m475dw) needs rebooting to scan to network folder
If our LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP(m475dw) sits overnight or for a good majority of the day without scanning to a network folder it will need to be rebooted before it will connect to the folder.
I have tried adding a different folder and the same issue occurs. The printer is connected to the network via wireless connection.
Once the printer has been power cycled the scanner now works fine to the network.
I would like to figure out why this is necessary and find a fix for it.
Good day,

Laserjet Pro 400 color MFP M475dw print in black and white
Hello,
I have a Laserjet Pro 400 color MFP M475dw printer that is contected to a network so that multiple users can print from it. I want to be able to restrict it so that they can only print in black and white and double sided. Is this possible? and if so could you please tell me how?
I am not able to restrict them on a print by print basis, hence I am looking for a solution where I only have to make the change once.
Thanks for your help!I understand you want to change a setting one time so that no matter who is sending the printer a print job it prints in gray scale. Actually I found two ways to do it. Here is the basic way to do it as described on page 16 of the User Guide. Also, you could set up this printer to receive emails (ePrint) in gray scale only. I just did a test after making changes in my ePrint settings at www.eprintcenter.com and no color was printed on a regular document containing color. I hope that answers your question. If not, let me know. I will be happy to explain greater detail.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

Scanner error 6: HP LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP M475dw does not get through initialization phase
My lJ400 MFP475 detects a problem with the scanner unit after chewing on it for several minutes and never finishes intitialization. Initially you can hear the scanner head move softly, but after less than a minute it starts rattling at the end of every move.
After a few minutes I get the message "Scanner error 6, Turn off then turn on".
I did that, again and again. Also with cables removed, waiting for some time etc.
In the Event log I can see the following:
Entry # Code Page Description
10 54.2100 1035 BD error
9 54.2100 1023 BD error

I have used this MFP sparingly and am only halfway the first set of color toner cartridges, so I'm a bit disappointed about how quickly this printer gives up. My previous printer was an Apple Laserwriter Select 360 that lasted for 20 years (no, I'm not kidding, bought it in 1993).
Any clue?Hello Nazdrovje,

Laserjet pro 400 color MFP m475dw scanner stopped working in windows 8.1. Please help!
updated my laptop to windows 8.1 and the hp scanning software stopped working. It would not find the printer even though i could print from it. I uninstalled the entire software suite, removed all traces of the printer from contol pannel and then proceeded to download the 8.1 64 bit version of the full solution suite. Tried to run it and the program gets to about 80%, says a problem occurred while preparing to install software to your system and tells me to restart computer and try again.
Tried restart, no go. then tried to load just the basic print and scan and same problem. Restarted, tried again and nothing. then i turned off firewall and antivirus. did prior steps and nothing. I can manually install the printer through control pannel but I cant get the HP software to load at all. plum out of ideas and of course HP wants to charge me to troubleshoot a year old printer but cant guarantee it will work. Lovely.... Any help is appreciated.I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer.

Cannot connect to HP ePRINT Web site with LaserJet Pro 400 colour MFP M475dw
LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP m475dw- Just installed. Scan, print ,copy ,fax all working fine! using WiFi
Using IMAC OS 10.8.2 with all updates
Using Netgear router DGN2200v3
Printer will not connect to HP ePrint Website
Printer connects to the Hp Support and Profile for fax set up etc. But the "HP Web Services" Section when entered and hit the Enable Button-- It does not connect to the site --- it just seems to just refresh.
if i try to connect thro the printer not the imac and try enable web services it says" Connecting " on the screen BUT after a few minutes of trying -------- then says " CONNECTION ERROR-- the printer is unable to connect to the service. Check the internet connection
ANY IDEAS-- AM I MISSING SOMETHING ???
MANY THANKS
This question was solved.
View Solution.I would try pulling up the embedded web server (EWS) by entering the IP address for the printer in to a browser and set a static IP address & DNS.
The information for the default gateway, subnet mask and that IP address can be accessed from the Setup menu on the front panel, go to Setup>> Reports>> Network summary and that will print it off.
Once you have entered the IP in to a Browser and have the EWS pulled up, navigate to the tab at the top labeled “Networking”. Then click on IPv4 in the left column; that will bring up the Address configuration page. Set the radio button to manual and fill out the IP address, Default gateway and Subnet mask with the information from the report. Do not worry about filling out the portion titled WINS server, that can be left alone.
You will then want to fill out the DNS portion of the page, The Preferred should be set to 8.8.8.8 and the alternative/secondary should be set to 8.8.4.4. Then click “apply”
Power cycle the printer. Turn it off, wait 30 seconds and then turn it back on. Once it is completely up and running reattempt to connect to web services.

Hp laserjet pro 400 color MFP model m475dw repair manual
While trying to copy some documents, display shows the following errors:
1.- Service error 49. I'd review on a downloaded owner manual what to do and no more messages. After I restarted the printer shows the following error.
2.- Service error 79. I'd followed the the owners manual once again and the problem was solved, then I discovered that the upper paper tray send the message to remove clogged paper, I'd removed the paper and then when I try to make a copy the printer showed me on display the scanner number 6 error.
I want to check the upper tray assy to avoid broken parts cause the tray stared to do a rattling sound...

HELP! My HP LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP M475dn printer will NOT print!!!!
HP LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP M475dn- CE863A
Printer is on a network and can connect to multiple computers that include: Mac OS X, Windows 7, and Windows XP.
When I try to print from my iMac, the printer queue says "The printer is not connected". When we try to print from the Windows computers, it just sits there in the queue and doesn't print. When I go over to the printer itself and try to print either a demo page or a supplies page directly from it, it says on the screen that is printed it but nothing happens. It doesn't hum or anything! The port where the network cable is connected is lit green which HP says that means that the network cable is connected. We have had this printer for a year now and something like this has never happened.
I haven't switched any software or anything before this happened. It was working fine on Saturday when we were using it, but when we came into work today, it just decided it would stop printing!
I am stumped! I tried 'pinging' the printer's IP address from my iMac and it pings just fine. Does anyone have any tips?
(I tried doing the obvious too- like turning the printer on and off and shutting the computers down- and nothing!)
This question was solved.
View Solution.Okay, so I'm feeling slightly stupid right now. I decided I would shut the printer down for about an hour to see if that was it and what do you know- it was! I had shut it off a few times before but I guess it just wasn't long enough. What a pain!
Thank you to anyone who took the time to read this! Sorry to waste anyone's time!! -
Grinding noise when my HP LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP M475 calibrates
When my HP LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP M475 recalibrates, I get a grinding or gear slipping noise. Any idea how to fix it or what to look for?
This question was solved.
View Solution.Noise issues are difficult to troubleshoot remotely and they could easily misguide even when we are close to the device.
Please do confirm if the noise is a grinding noise or squeky/humming noise.
As you have mentioned that it happens only while calibrating, hence I would suggest you to re-check & validate your toner cartridges. One of the toner cartrdige may be defective and causing this issue.
If not the toner cartridge then it would be one of the printer hardware component which is in question, hence an HP tech. might need to perform physical inspection of the device and the error condition.

HP LaserJet Pro 100 color MFP M175nw does not connect to wireless network
I recently upgraded my wireless network router. I had my HP LaserJet Pro 100 color MFP M175nw connected to the old wireless network router. The SSID is password protected (WPA2)
I need to connect the printer to the new wireless network router. However, neither the control panel nor blue wireless connection button provide any way for me to do this. The manual has not walked through a way to do this.
There really needs to be a simple, no-nonsense way to just connect the printer to the wireless network. How do I connect this printer to a new wireless network?Hi @shakayumi ,
I see that you are having issues configuring the printer on the new router. I would like to help.
Restore the printer's network defaults.
Touch the Setup button. (wrench)
Select Network Setup Menu.
Then select Restore Defaults.
Print out a configuration report to make sure the IP address is 0.0.0.0 and the SSID is cleared.
Printing a Configuration Report.
Here are the directions for setting up the printer through the Wireless Direct to configure the printer over the network as Infrastructure.
Turn the Wireless Direct on the printer.
On the printer touch the setup button, (wrench) then select network setup menu, select wireless menu, select wireless direct and turn it on.
On the computer, in the bottom right corner click on the wireless icon and select the printer from the list to connect to. Then open Internet Explorer and type in the IP address (192.168.223.1) for the printer in the address bar.
This will load the embedded web server for the printer.
Select the networking tab, wireless on the left hand side.
Fill out all your network information, select infrastructure, select your network name, put in password and type of encryption. Apply settings.
Click on the wireless icon and connect back to your network name.
Print out a configuration report to make sure the IP address is valid. (192... or 10....)
Now create a new port, this will save you the time, instead of uninstalling and reinstalling the software.
Go to Start, Devices and Printers, right click the printer, go to Printer Properties, select the Ports tab.
Click Add Port, select Standard TCP/IP Port, then select New Port and follow the wizard.
Type in the proper IP address for the printer.
Make sure the printer is online.
Test the printer.
If you are still having issues, then try this method:
If you have a Ethernet cable, connect it from the printer to the router.
Wait about a minute, print the configuration page to see if you get a IP address.
Then type the IP address into Internet Explorer's address bar to bring up the printer's web page.
Select the networking tab, wireless on the left hand side.
Fill out all your network information, select infrastructure, select your network name, put in password and type of encryption. Apply settings.
Then disconnect the Ethernet cable.
Then wait a minute to see if you get a wireless light on the printer, print the configuration page and check the IP address again. Then type the IP address into Internet Explorer's address bar to bring up the printer's web page.
If the printer is back on the network, create a new port. Steps are listed above.
Make sure the printer is online.
Try and print now.

HP Laserjet Pro 200 color MFP skipping even pages when scanning
my scanner skips ever other page when scanning. noticed other posts regarding a different model and wondering if there is a fix out there for the Laserjet Pro 200 MFP??? Please and Thank you!!
Hi jbogda,
I see by your post that the printer skips every other page when scanning. I can help you.
Do you have the Laserjet Pro M276 printer?
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
I believe that you are scanning from the ADF, multiple pages and the feeder isn't pulling in the pages properly. Please clarify if I am incorrect.
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.
I have provided a document with some steps to try to see if that will resolve the issue.
'Document feeder mispick' Message Displays on the Control Panel and the ADF Does Not Pick Up Paper o... Disregard the title.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a nice day!
