  Hey @ssullivan,

  Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I understand that you have a password on your Laserjet M277. To move only the printer will probably need to have a factory reset done on this. To do this, you need to contact HP support. You can contact HP support by clicking here and filling out the form below.

  I hope that you are able to remove this password set and I hope you have a nice day!

• Color Laser Jet MFP M277dw Pro: Requiring an Admin password that I do not have

  Me too!  Add me to the list of people with admin password problems.

  I got this printer (domestic use) several months and I meet some weird problems with it.  I don't use it that often so I'm still learning.  Just today, he began asking an admin password be entered before I can do anything.  I don't have the password and do not have one.  - And I write the password, access code, etc. in a book.

  I'm starting to think that this printer has to gremlins.  Joke!

  Thank you!

  Thank you for your quick response.  I tried twice and it didn't work.  I understand why the saleswoman at Staples has proposed the extension of warranty and said that there are many problems with all of them in printers.  Any other ideas?

• Color LaserJet MFP M277dw Pro: MFP M277dw unable to connect to wifi

  I just bought the Color LaserJet MFP M277dw Pro, and I can't connect to wifi. I have it connected via a USB cable and it works fine, it's just that I can't seem to connect to my wifi. The wifi seems fine, just connect my existing devices right (MacBook, iPhone, iPad). It finds the network, but it seems to expire when I put the password to connect.

  Hi @StephanieB2,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand that you are having problems with the networking of the printer. I want to help you solve this problem.

  It's really weird that the printer is expire when you put the network password.

  Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector) This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

  You can also configure the printer on the wireless network, thanks to the Wi - Fi Direct connection.

  Tap the icon on the screen of the printer wireless.

  Select the Wi - Fi Direct connection.

  Turn it on, if it isn't already, and if there is a code it marks down.

  Then on the Mac, go to the airport icon and connect to the network printer. (Direct 69 HP Laserjet M277)

  If requested a code or password, put the one you noted.

  Then open Safari and type 192.168.223.1.

  He will be responsible: the printer Web server integrated.

  Click the network tab.

  On the left side of the window, select Wireless Network Configuration and fill your information.

  Apply the settings.

  Can connect you to your network.

  Then add the printer.

  Click on the Apple menu, click System Preferences.
  Scanners & printers, then click the plus sign +.

  Select the printer in the list.

  Select your printer from the drop-down and click on the Add button.

  Test the printer.

  If there is anything else I can help you, let me know. Thank you.

• Color Laser Jet MFP M277dw Pro: frequently updated software

  I am the owner of a color Laser Jet MFP M277dw Pro. I get updates almost every week, and the software update is very strange. I'm clicking on the update system, it takes a lot of time to meet up with the text saying I'll remove the actual update or add another device. When I say no, thanks, I'll get a message saying that my update was successful (but only if I have to cancel this message). I don't understand why I have to go through this illogical question. Also, I don't understand why it is not necessary to update very frequently, especially when there is no explanation of the reason why.
  
  The two just exclamation points annoy me because I think that there must be a problem with the software, even if the printer works well.
  
  Sincere greetings

  Greetings @ahw,

  Thank you access the Forums from HP Support for extra support! I see that you have problems with updates of window for the printer software. I'd love to help you.

  Given that the printer works, I would say to hide updates.

  A poster tried to show or hide updates and it solved their problem.

  • How to "hide update" during the Build 9926
  • Need for the old Windows Update, not the new Windows Update
  • Windows 10 - where is the 'hide or show updates' hidden feature
  • How can I hide this update in Windows 10?
  • How to hide Windows Update, Windows 10 build 10061?

  You can also give your feedback to Microsoft, and if all goes well, they will release an update to correct the function of the operating system. You can learn how here; Updates and feedback.

• LaserJet MFP M277dw Pro: Windows installs its own printer driver after failure of wireless printer, print

  It is a problem really bizzare, I will try to explain as clearly as possible what happened:

  • I have 277dw LaserJet MFP Pro, which is connected to my PC via wireless network. I installed the drivers from HP and everything worked as a watch movement - printing and scanning.
  • Yesterday, the power is out for about 30 minutes. Computer stayed on thanks to UPS, but the printer power loss.
  • Once the power was restored to the printer, printer initialized and I was able to access his page of HTTP status without problems. All the parameters of the printer has persisted. Same IP address. Printer all self-tests pass. However, I have lost the ability to print (printer shows more as an option in the print dialog boxes). Scanner works as usual, save the scan to a network folder.
  • The State of device HP icon has disappeared from the taskbar.
  • A bunch of new entries titled "NPIF7BB8E (MP Color LaserJet MFP M277dw)" appears in the Device Manager. This 'new' device appears in the Device Manager 5 times under different categories of devices (see attached screenshot). In the Event Viewer, I discovered that Windows installed for this device right when the power has been restored to the printer.
  • Under control panel-> hardware and sound-> devices and printers, all devices installed by HP are grayed out and their status is not connected.
  • Restarting the computer does not resolve this issue.

  Anyone have any ideas on what is happening here? It's the second time this has happened - I was able to fix the first time by reinstalling the printer drivers. However, I don't want to have to do every time the failure. This looks like a bug in Windows or the drivers.

  Thank you!

  

  Hello

  Most likely your operating system is set to automatically install the drivers, when the lost connection the WPS driver build has been added.

  Try these steps and check if that helps:

  1. In Control Panel, select network and Internet.
  2. Open the network and sharing Center.
  3. Search your active network profile, it appears just below the name of the network (for example Private Network, work network)
  4. The side pane select change advanced sharing settings.
  5. In the profile category, uncheck 'automatically enable the configuration of the connected network devices '.
  6. Click on save to confirm.
  7. Devices and printers remove any element M277 printer), as well as Device Manager (remove the two original HP or WPS item, you should see is no longer the M277.)
  8. Once select start > all Apps > HP > HP Laserjet M277 and select the shortcut to reconfigure the device, it can appear as the printer software installation & connect a new printer, etc.

  Hope that helps,

• MFP M277 dw: Color LaserJet MFP M277dw Pro issues with iMac

  I have a 2015 21.5 "iMac running El Capitan (10.11.3) and a HP Color LaserJet Pro M277dw MFP that falls in offline mode when it is idle for a while.

  Once the Mac has been sleeping, I can no longer copy, scan or fax without having to restart the printer and the iMac. And it is intermittent. This does not happen everytime the iMac goes to sleep, but no doubt it happens once or twice a week.

  The printer is connected both wireless (so that I can print from my iPad in other parts of the House.) and directly to the iMac via USB.

  I have updated all the HP software related and have applied the last update of the HP firmware for the printer as well. I also ran through all the game instructions that were provided with the printer.

  Other troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi @RBurgett,

  Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your fall issue offline printer.

  I understand you have a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw connected to a wireless network for your iPad and connected with a USB to your iMac running Mac OS X 10.11.3 El Capitan, but the drops of the printer is offline after has been idle for a while and becomes also insensitive after mode "Eve". I would like to help with that.

  If you see the message on the printer offline on the iMac, it would be because the iMac think he's using the wireless printer, when it should be using the USB connection.

  You should be able to solve that by unplugging the USB cable. Once the USB cable is removed, reset the Mac printing system. If you don't know how to reset the Mac printing system, here is a document of support that can help - reset the printing system.

  After printing Mac system has been reset, you should be able to reconnect the USB cable and add it to printers and Scanners.

  As far as being not able to copy, scan or fax without having to restart the printer and the iMac that could be solved by resetting the printing system and making sure the USB printer is listed in the printers and Scanner. When the printer seem to be insensitive, the first step is to perform a reset of the power on the printer.

  

  Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

• LaserJet Pro 400 m425dn lost - password reset?

  Hello

  We have a LaserJet Pro 400 m425dn.  Someone put a password, so we cannot access the settings.  How can we remove the password - a full factory reset would be fine. I tried to Flash the firmware via a USB cable, but the password remains in place.

  Thank you

  Mike

  I understand how frustrating it is, but since it is a security feature, it is best to not to broadcast how do to reset the password online.  I recommend you call the call center, so they can walk you through it.  The numbers are on this page:

• Color Laserjet MFP M277DW Pro: scan to pdf corrupted

  I use Nitro PDF, and every time that I scan to PDF it is said the first page was damaged and has been repaired.   But it is empty, no content on page 1. This will happen if I use the shipper of record or the screen.  I just bought a new laptop, and there was this problem on my old laptop as well.  Scan to JPEG works but then have to take the extra step to convert the JPEG to PDF and it's a hassle.  Why the first page is always corrupt?

  Hello

  Do you have installled of Adobe Reader on your PC? (even if not used as the default viewer)?

  As you can find the system requirements below, it is part of the configuration required to make full use of the printer:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Color-LaserJet-MFP-M277-series/7089945/model/7089949/document/c04515051/

  Try to install it starting from the following link, then try to scan the image:

  http://get.Adobe.com/reader/

  Now try to open the file with Nitro PDF, if the same persists check if you can see a difference with Adobe Reader.

• color laserjet mfp m277dw pro: the new Firmware update

  My M277dw printer is automatically downloaded and installed a firmware update last night.

  The datecode on the printer now shows 20160606.

  The update took me by surprise because I was in the middle of a print session.

  Is it a real update?  If yes where can I find the notes that this version is not on the driver download page.

  @Robert069,

  All the firmware update are directly from the HP Server. They are automatic HP where to connect to the network.

  I don't have details of which fixed the update but not yet posted to the customer of the USB. The update last two were to improve the network connection and built-in web server looks like.

  You don't have to worry about melware on the printer, as melware is a computer-based software. Can not be installed on printers.  Remember to update the printer firmware are link updateing the BIOS on a computer.

  I hope this helps.
