M476nw: Color LaserJet MFP M476nw Fax Test failed

I bought a new LaserJet M476nw, but my fax test fails each time through the configuration laserjet and HP utility software.  The Laserjet Printer is connected on a network and using Vista.

I have a dedicated fax line that is connected into the socket on the icon with the socket at the rear of the laserjet printer.   I can hear the tone on the fax line when it is connected to a phone.   I called the fax line and it's normally rings and no response.   I also tried to connect a phone to the phone laserjet icon, while the fax line is connected to the laserJet printer, I hear the tone of the phone.

I don't know what I have to do to get the fax test to pass, so I can start fax on this machine.  Any suggestion is appreciated.

Mike

In fact, this problem is now solved.

It's a whole new machine, so since I didn't really have all the data I did a restore to return by default.  It restarts and now he spends.

    Hey @yechiel-adar,.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that your color HP LaserJet Pro 100 M175a multifunction fails to install on your computer Windows 8.1 as the computer recognizes your printer as a CD drive and the installation fails at 83%. I would like to help you to solve this problem today. To be honest, it sounds like there is a conflict between your computer and the HP Smart Install feature. Smart Install is a feature that has been programmed into the new models of Laserjet. It allows you to simply plug a USB cable and the installation files will load on your computer for you for faster and easier installation.

    2. right click on the printer and select "Update Driver software"

    3. click on "Browse my computer for driver software".

  • 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,

If this helps you to find a solution, please click on the button "Accept as Solution" down below in this message.

    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 LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro: Scan to Mac with Color LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro

    I bought and the latest drivers from hp installation a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw. are downloaded and installed.

    I have a Mac and you connect wirelessly to the printer, which works very well. The Mac runs Yosemite 10.10.3

    My question is the digitization. There is no option for scanning anywhere, not on the small screen of the printer not on the usefulness of the printer or any where.

    Summer spend hours online to find an answer and is now well bored.

    I have already reset the disc printing, verified and repaired systems. Can not scan even with the options offered on the forums of hp using Apple caprure or preview. It seems that all these options include versions of OS X prior to Yosemite?

    I buy a multifunction printer that is not scan? I said to the saleswoman that I need a printer that can scan and airprint...

    Is it possible to scan to a mac at all with this printer? Any help?

    Hi @sa9494,

    I see that you have problems with scanning. I will definitely do my best to help you.

    Check the name of the driver that is installed by the printer. Make sure that it shows just the name of the printer.
    Click on the Apple menu, click System Preferences. Click on Printers & Scanners, highlight the name of the printer on the left side and right side of the screen it should show the name of the printer. (Color LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro)

    If the full name of the printer is not correctly, delete and add the printer name back from the list. Click on the sign - to remove the driver and then click on the + sign to add the driver might have to drop-down list to select the name of the printer to add a click.

    Here is a screenshot of what it should look like. You have the scanning through top tab?

    I have also included a document for HP printers - scan with HP Software in OS X v10.10 Yosemite.

    Scanning ports is not open on the router to the origin of this problem. You can contact the router company to verify and to open these ports 9220/9500/427 on the router.

    Connect the printer with the USB cable, to see if you have the same results.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • HP Color LaserJet MFP M570dw and HP Web Services

    Hello

    I have a HP Color LaserJet M570dw MFP printer and have tried to activate the Services Web of HP, but without success.

    My printer is configured on an IP-fixed, with a gateway by default and, of course, with static DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) servers.

    Every time when I try to activate the Web Services feature I get the error message "connection error. Check your internet connection. ».

    My internet connection works very well and the printer is able to communicate through the firewall too. When I do a follow-up I see the printer communicating to the public IP "23.21.172.122" but there is no response in return. So I guess the problem is unrelated to my internal and external configuration. I tested with a completely open Firewall (allowing all communications on my local network to the Internet) with exactly the same results. There is no response from the IP "23.21.172.122".

    Also I find not the HP Color LaserJet M570dw MFP printer in HP ePrint printerlist support.

    The 400 series is supported, the 500 series is not mentioned.

    But since the interface Web of my HP Color LaserJet M570dw MFP printer gives me the HP Web Services configuration page, I asumed this type would be too strong...

    Someone has an idea how to get ePrint working on the HP Color LaserJet M570dw MFP printer?

    Is there anyone who got the HP Web Services works on a HP Color LaserJet M570dw MFP printer?

    Kind regards
