LaserJet 400 m401dn: HP Laserjet 400 m401dn, make wireless?

Is it possible to buy a product to make the Laserjet 400 m401dn active wifi or is this product already activated?  The internet router is in another place, so a physical connection is not possible.  I would like the capability configure the SSID, etc. to connect and print.  Thank you.

> Laserjet 400 m401dn wifi active or is this product already activated?

The m401dn is a model of printer Dmodel Network (wire) connected.  The active WiFi model would be a M401dw , that would be the model Dand Wwireless.

However, if you create a connection to your router via a wired Ethernet connection and then the printer would be accessible by wireless network devices.  All you need to do is get the printer on the network.

> internet router is in a different location so a physical connection is not possible.

The only options you have are to run a new cable at the location of the printer and Ethernet cable connect with the current hardware.

Otherwise you would seek to create a 'bridge' between the printer and the router wireless network using a router without wire 2.  Configure the wireless router 2 to act as a client or to fill in the primary wireless router that acts as the main Point of access to the network.  Once the 2nd wireless router is filled in elementary school all the devices that are connected to Router 2 will be accessible from the main access point.

There are guides out there circulating that walks you through this process, but the specific steps will have to come some 2nd router manufacturer, you can decide to experiment.

Here is a sample of Cisco support article that calls this "Cascade" procedure one router to another:

    As you can see I'm getting 2 different error messages, but I have no idea on what step I need to take next. I tried many things such as removing and adding the printer, firmware update (however HP program is quite vague, so I don't know if I've done this good), etc. of Windows updates.

    There are several devices that use the printer (including other users of Win10) but I'm the only one with this problem so I am convinced that it is a local error. I got the error a few weeks now, but still no improvement.

    Thanks for reading,

    I've tried, but it did not work. I found a solution, although I'm not entirely sure of what went around or causing the problem.

    First, I tried to reinstall the printer software/driver (?) that you usually get when you enter the IP address of the printer and the HP smart install. I got the software from my brother who put it on my pc by Onedrive and e-mail. However, I could not run the file because Windows somehow he blocked for security reasons because the developer has not been approved. I couldn't disable the blocking, so I did some research on Google. I read something about a hidden administrator account, you can activate, but decided to wait a bit.

    Apaprently, as of yesterday, no one could use the printer (although my problems before that). We found his IP address online so I plugged the USB from the printer directly in our modem. Then he has been brought back online, and he remained in line when we removed the USB later.

    I had activated the administrator account "secret" (assuming that it is some kind of hidden because it took activation CMD) where I downloaded the printer driver by entering the IP address in the browser on this account. Don't know how or why, but then I was able to print again.

    I don't know if you need to turn on this admin account to fix or if this file is a solution in the first place, but I solved the problem.

  • Add LaserJet 1525nw to the wireless network

    Hello

    Since I update my router for the Cisco E3200, it seems that my printer laser color 1525nw spray can not register to the router. I tried the router WPS button to find the printer and the PIN method, but both failed. Can someone please help me get the printer connect to the router wirelessly? I work in an office environment at home.

    Thank you very much.

    I'm not entirely sure as to why this happens.  In some cases, restore the network by default before the WPS option used.

    On the printer, go to network settings > network by default.  This will reset the network outside the parameters of the box.

    Go to network setup > Menu wireless > wireless on / off and check the wireless radio is on.

    Once it is completed, repeat the WPS configuration by going to Network Configuration > wireless Menu > Setup WPS to prepare the printer to use the router WPS button.

    Let me know what happens.

    I tried to use the same cable / usb port to print from the printer and it works.   but that's just for this installation wireless, doenst work.

    Help.

    Hello

    This can happen due to connection of USB oprior the installation of the software.

    In the devices Panel and printers, right-click on any instance of your printer and select remove device.

    Allow it a moment, if nothing happening try removing and reconnecting the USB after the specified screen.

    If you have already stopped the installation, don't forget to remove any existing printer device and unplug the USB, then follow the installation once more and connect it only when necessary.

    If it persists, click the background area of devices and printers and select Device Manager, is there any icon marked in different categories?

  • LaserJet CP1525nw: Claer'style Wireless configuration - Laserjet CP1525nw

    I had to replace a router in a neighbor's House, they used the object connected wireless printer.  The new router has forced me to change the password for the connection Wireless which was previously used.  The same SSID IS used on the router again.  I tried all attempts to reset the network settings on the printer, and whenever I do, and then repeat the wireless configuration, whether through WPS, PIN or CD-ROM and USB cable, in all cases, the connection fails and in the best case said security password is wrong or in the most serious cases that the printer is NOT the CORRECT wireless network.

    More bizarre, set part aside from the absence of a solution on the forums of HP, or in the manuals, is that the printer keeps picking up an odd-ball, "HPCP1525-135f8d" SSID, mode is ad hoc and the INVESTIGATION period comes up with a "fake" number that does NOT correspond to a local network, 169.254.123.35.  I've seen IP like this before on the PC NIC cards that can not connect, I think that it's some sort of IP assigned internally, not any network device.  That combined with the fake SSID, I am convinced that the printer is at the origin of these BAD configuration data.

    I tried to manually set the IP address, using a reserved IP address on the router that I've set up just for this printer.  Still nothing, it fails to connect, and collects and records this bad SSID and IP.

    How the h * ll get you the NVRAM on the printer to remove this IP and FORGET that SSID?

    Don't tell me to re - run the installer, I tried several times, which can temporarily erase data, but by re-running the installer again collects and RECORDS the wrong configuration data.

    My best guess, and another solution that cannot be found ANYWHERE, is how do you do a HARD reset printer factory?  I had about my fill of the usability of these interface software and setup of HP!

    Help!

    I found this on a post above and it works for the person.  You must first connect the printer with an ethernet cable to your network router properly available ports and then follow the instructions below:

    The non-taureau * beep * way to Setup your HP CP1525nw for Wireless Printing

      1. Connect the printer to your router via an ethernet cable.
      2. At this point, you will need to navigate through the LCD keys and a printer to the network installation. It is a simple menu tree that you access via clicking on the arrow buttons and clicking OK. Simply connect via Ethernet and use the DHCP protocol. It needs to connect to your network.
      3. Once the printer connects to your network, it will display its IP address on the printer's built-in LCD display.

      Enter the IP address in a web browser on a computer that is on the same network. After clicking on enter you will be presented with an administration interface based on the web for your printer.

      1. Click on the tab 'network '.
      2. Click on "Wireless Network Configuration" in the options on the left.
      3. Status should be 'ON '.
        Configuration method must be "join an existing network.
        Name of the network is expected to present a list of available networks. Click on yours.
        Authentication should be set according to your network
      4. Click on APPLY and disconnect the wired connection to the router. The little light on the front of the printer wireless flashes because it connects to your wireless router. Once the light is solid new IP address of the printer should be displayed on the built-in LCD screen.  You should now be able to connect using this ip address.

    Hey @HJW1,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you encounter some problems with the connection of your series M277 Laserjet Printer to your wireless network. I can help you with that.

    To start, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Once done:
    Turn the printer off.

    While the printer is turned off, disconnect the power cable from the back of the router for a minute.

    When the lights come back on the router, turn on the printer.

    After the above, you should be able to connect the printer to your wireless network. If you can't, please let me know what happens when you try to connect to the network now. If you are able to connect, click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.

  • HP LaserJet P1102w worked very well and now just print 1st page of multi-page documents

    Hi, I used my printer for more than 6 months.

    Last month, has had the problem for a couple of days, then he went suddenly (yahoo, I thought).

    Has started again last night when printing pdf documents, it only prints the first page and then it seems stuck on page 2 (52% complete transfer appears on the windows printer).  For word, it seems to just take forever to print other pages...

    Running on a Mac OX X Yosemite.  Printer is connected with a wire (I was never able to complete the wireless connection and got too busy to spend more time understanding...).

    Tried to turn off my computer and then restarting him.  Also stop the printer and restarted.
