LaserJet M1217nfw MFP: want to receive faxes to your computer

I recently put my LaserJet M1217nfw on our network.  I want to be able to view faxes on my computer before printing.  Can I configure my computer to receive faxes on my computer if my computer and Laser M1217nfw are on the same network?

I'm following the instructions to 'receive faxes to a computer', but the application won't have any choice.

This function will not work because the M1217nfw is now on a network?

Hi RBM1927,

Fax to PC works only when the printer is connected to USB. If you need to fax to pc, you will need to connect the printer to the computer via the USB cable. You can also see the other post for this problem on the link below. Let me know if you need help.

  • Problems with the LaserJet M1217nfw MFP - resolution of the Scanner and ADF feeding issues

    Feature: LaserJet M1217nfw MFP

    Connection: Ethernet

    OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    1st problem: using the TWAIN software, I am unable to change the resolution of the documents I'm scanning. It displays only the 300 and the menu drop-down does not offer any other parameters. It is having to make each document that I scan a lot more big that it must be, and the company I'm downloading of complained them of the overused storage space.  Device MUST be based on the network for the office.

    2nd problem: the ADF is VERY picky. If the paper is inserted at the stop, it will not pick up and will keep scanning out of the original glass. I usually have 2 or 3 times to find the "sweet spot" where it will actually be a new Pick-up analysis.

    I must say, I was very happy with this product when we got it first, the web interface with the drivers loaded on the printer was a great feature and the installation for each machine went very smooth. However, lately this device became more complicated than a time saver.

    Hi SilentbobSC,

    Follow the steps below.

    1. click on settings

    2. remove the checkmark of "Display the dialogue from TWAIN to allow cropping and low sweep"

    3. click on the drop down arrow to adjust your ppp settings

  • LaserJet m1217nfw mfp - Dungeon print wireless failing / falling on Mac OS 10.7.5

    I installed my LaserJet m1217nfw mfp at least 4 times during the month using my Mac running on OS 10.7.5. The first time was with the CD supplied with the printer, and the last was 3 times with the latest version of the software downloaded from HP.

    Each time, wireless printing is set up and works without a problem (using these official instructions from HP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48mLZoRjJm0). But a few days later, when I try to print the same Mac Wireless, it does not find the printer on the network. And nothing on the network or router has changed.

    It is quite frustrating. I doubt for the 5th time will solve the problem once and for all.

    Any ideas much appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hi SC_W

    I understand that you keep losing wireless connection.

    I have included a document for printer is not maintaining the wireless connection.

    To configure the static method IP go to step 6: your HP product of the assign a static IP address.

    If the printer deposits the wireless again follow step 4: perform a power reset on the HP product and a wireless router and then restart the computer.

    Hope that helps.

  • Cannot install Trend Micro 2012, receive error message: "your computer meets all the installation requirements, so Setup must stop."

    Original title: Problems installing Trend Micro 2012

    Tried to install Trend micro on my laptop, and towards the end of this way the message; "Your computer meets all the installation requirements, so the installer must stop." appeared. He then read "Windows update," I clicked on the link and also called microsoft who gave me the link updates from SP1 to SP2. I did (ran for almost 2 hours!) and recorded. I then checked the edition of windows under system and it has not saved the update even if it is registered and installed to my files. Tried to do the foregoing twice, still the same problem. Rang Dell and they sought to find an answer to the problem, but did everything they could. Still no answer to the problem after all. I have Windows Vista Home Basic as my operating system and installed Trend micro in the past with no problems. (Not sure if the following has nothing to do with it, but thought it might be useful a mention). I changed to Microsoft Office 2007, which has already been installed on my laptop for Office 2003, because I found it difficult from the laptop to the desktop and I didn't really want to pay for the upgrade of my office, if I didn't need it.

  • LaserJet M1217nfw MFP: HP laserjet printer stop printing after the change of internet provider - solution: Reinstall...

    Hello

    my all-in-one HP laserjet has worked on my computer laptop windows 7, via a wifi connection, in the past;

    internet provider has recently changed, and since then, I can't install the printer so that it works continuously.

    After installation initial (via cable between laptop and printer), everything seems fine;

    I select "share with everyone".

    = > everything OK, everything prints, for two users.

    Problem:

    The next time myself or another user trying to print, just a few days later - nothing works anymore.

    NO error message;

    use of the printer is visible in the queue;

    printer is visible (and selected as the default printer) in "devices and printers" with a green check mark, but in light grey, as if idle.

    When (right) by clicking on "help", no error is found... but nothing prints, always.

    How can I avoid to do the reinstall whenever I want to print from my laptop?

    (Printing from my Tablet works great!)

    Would be very grateful for your help... Thanks in advance!

    Hi @KatLe ,

    I see that you have problems printing to different user accounts. I will definitely do my best to help you.

    I have provided a document for the definition of security permissions for printing to see if this will help.

    Can the administrator account on the computer printing, or were they also intermittent problems?

    Download and run the Print and Scan doctor. It will diagnose the problem and could solve it automatically. Find and fix common printer problems using the tools of diagnosis HP for Windows?

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    If you need help, let me know.

    Good day!
    Thank you.

    I have problems to connect certain devices to my computer via my wi - fi. I'm usually able to resolve the problem by running Network Diagnostics, but after awhile, I start to have problems of connectivity network again.

  • HP LaserJet M1536dnf MFP responds automatically faxes

    My new HP LaserJet M1536dnf MFP does not automatically fax calls.  I don't have a phone hooked or a voice mail/answering machine.  "Answer Mode is"Auto".

    We use an analog converter to connect to our internal digital VOIP phone system.  Prior MFP which was connected has not had problems with answering machine/printing faxes.

    I can see "Incoming" call on the screen, but it just rings and rings.  If you press the button "Start Fax" when it rings, then he will proceed to the connection and receive it, it finally drops the call.  It's not good to see many faxes come when the office is closed or otherwise unattended.

    I tried setting "Fax / such", but that no longer works.

    Help, please!

    Thank you very much!!!

    Hi @DW - OH,.

    I see by your post that faxes will not come by when it is set to auto or Fax / Tel, but manually, you can receive the fax. I can help you with this.

    Update the firmware of the printer.

    Select your operating system, click Next, click the link for the firmware.

    Please check your messages for the reset of the printer, I saw that solve this problem before.

  • How to configure my Mac (OSX Lion) to receive faxes directly from my HP Officejet 6500 +.

    I have a Mac OS x Lion and a HP Officejet 6500 +. I would like to save incoming faxes directly to my computer, rather than having the 6500 to print them. I installed the driver of HP6500 on Mac: print and outgoing fax jobs. Using the configuration Print & Scan on Mac System Preferences, I can select the Officejet 6500 fax, click on "receive options" and turn on "receive faxes on this computer": I got him to answer after 1 ring and save faxes to an appropriate folder.

    The problem is that the incoming faxes even print directly on the 6500 and are not registered on the computer.

    I tried following the instructions on the manual for 6500 located here: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02519721.pdf but the indications on page 57 for the implementation using the HP tell me to select the "applications" icon in the toolbar and it isn't here.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Well, this got me half way there, thank you.

    Once you have installed the software which recommends ShlomiL, then you must enable the option Archive digital as described, which won't be available unless the device is physically connected via a USB cable. Wireless is not an option. The value "Digital Fax archiving" 'Save to Folder' and then choose a folder that is accessible in writing-world. The folder must be specific for incoming and used faxes for anything else! The 'Notification of incoming Fax' value to what you want.

    Then go into the front panel of the 6500 and disable printing fax. (There is an option buried under "base set up the fax / Fax HP Digital")

    Finally, create an automator workflow that automatically prints any picture of new place in the folder of incoming faxes created there are two steps. Set it to print on a printer laserjet cheap rather than ink-jet 6500 ridiculously expensive. (Or skip this step if you're ok with not having a copy of incoming faxes).

    You can ignore the options useful and well-designed integrated on your Apple about "receive faxes on this computer". HP only plays nice with that.

    I still hate the HP, but at least now I didn't spend $35 for a new inkjet cartridge every two weeks.
