My M177fw MFP shows paused and will not print, either wireless or with USB

I try to print wirelessly with my printer HP MFP M177fw.  It shows "ready to print", but does nothing.  If I delete this print job, it shows "printer paused".

Hi joanieo,

By your post, I see that you are unable to print to a USB connection or wireless.
I can help you with this problem.

I'd do a power reset to see if that will solve the problem.

When the printer is still lit, disconnect the power cable from the back of the printer.

Then, disconnect the power cable from the wall outlet.

Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the power cable to the wall outlet first, then the back of the printer and turn on again.

Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector)

For the USB connection, have the printer connected directly to the computer. (not a hub or a docking station)

It should not be more then 6 feet. Make sure it is a 2.0 and not a 3.0 cable. Also check the ports on the computer, they are 2.0.

Try and print a self-test on the printer hardware to see if it is a hardware or software problem.

Print a Configuration report.

What is the IP address?

Try to print from the computer.

If you're still having problems, then go through the steps described in this document provided, to see if she will help solve this problem.

"Printer is off-line" Message appears on the computer and the HP printer does not print.

Printing and scanning doctor could solve the problem automatically.

Please provide detailed results if you're still having problems.

What operating system do you use? How to find the Windows Edition and the Version on your computer.

Let me know the results of printing and scanning doctor. (error messages, printed test page)

Good day!
Thank you.

    Hello destiny.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community. I appreciate your efforts to resolve the issue. I will certainly help you with the problem you are experiencing.

    • Is the printer connected directly to the PC or it is on a network?
    • What is a printer wired or wireless?
    • What is the brand and model of the printer?

    Try the following and see if it helps.

    Method 1: Disable Antivirus

    If you have installed any third party such as antivirus or firewall security software, I would say you temporarily disable and check if it works.

    Disable the anti-virus software

     

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attack.

    Method 2: Update the drivers for your printer.

    For more information, see these links:

    Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/find-and-install-printer-drivers


    Method 3: Restart the print spooler service.

    You must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps.
    a. open administrative tools by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type administrative tools, and then click Administrative Tools.
    b. double-click on Services.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    c. right-click the print spooler service and then click Properties.
    d. on the general tab, next to startup type, make sure that automatic is selected.
    e. If the service is not already running, under Service status, click Start and then click OK.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation,
    type the password or provide confirmation.

    If nothing works, then manually add the printer to the local port and check.

    Method 4: Manually add the printer to the local port.

    a. go to control panel and click on devices and printers.
    b. click Add a printer, and then select Add a local printer. Click on create a new port. The default value in the drop-down list is Local Port. Don't change that.
    c. click Next.
    A dialog box appears for you request that you enter a port name. Type the name of \\computer name\printer.
    d. type your user name and the name of the printer (name \\PC\printer)
    e. click ok and exit.

  • HP Officejet 4620: Printer is in"error" and will not print, even though the computer says that it is "connected".

    My printer recently started telling me it was in a State of 'error' and could not print my documents.  Sometimes I could turn off the printer market and all that was trying to print would then print, if documents or Quicken checks.  Now I can't print from the computer at all, or it will print checks from Quicken even if I turn the printer power off and power on.  The HP Web site indicates that it is connected.  It is the second computer from HP Officejet 4620 of the original that I bought.  The first has a problem that has been covered by the warranty, and this one doesn't seem to be much better.

    Hi @Janilynn,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

  • Lexmark Interpret S405 is not communicating with the computer and will not print

    My computer works with Windows 7 and updates automatically.  I got the Lexmark Interpret S405 for 18 months, and it has worked great until a couple of months.  When I try to print, I get an error message indicating that the printer is not communicating with the computer.  When I check the printer, it shows he's ready.  The print job shows that it is ready to print, but nothing happens except for this message.  When I try to erase the impression, it really takes a lot of time - usually have to unplug the printer so that it can finally clear.  Then it still will not print if I try again unless I restart the computer.  Lexmark support page says that there is a problem with Windows 7 and their product.  All the solutions for this problem yet?

    Computer model of the bridge ZX6970, OS 64-bit, intel CORE CPU I-13 3.30 GHz, Windows 7 Home Premium.  Can someone advise a fix for this problem?  Thank you!

    Hello

    Have you tried to download and install the updated firmware for the Lexmark Interpret S405 from the manufacturer's website.

    If this isn't the case, please download and install it.

  • All my email preprint show as spam and will not print

    I created the account to allow only some email accounts send to eprint, but I get messages from them all say the email looks like spam and won't print.

    I'll need a little more info to help. What mail server you send the job-ePrint? What types of files / attachments are you sending?  Because it does not reach a certain level; make sure that when sending e-mail to the printer the printer is the sole listed beneficiary. If we don't do it will fail the job as spam. Be sure to not anyone on the Cc emails. In addition, turn off your signature on e-mail if it is automatic and repeat the work.

  • HP LaserJet Pro MFPm127fw: Printing Chromebook stuck in class and will not print

    My printer cannot print - things are still ongoing, but stay there for days until I delete them.  Everything is turned on and connected.  This printer has printed successfully for me before, but it goes through these phases where it stops printing and it has not printed for a week now.  I uninstalled, re-installed, all done.  My HP Chromebook detects the printer, shows pending print jobs, but they do not print.  Other aspects of the printer are very good, IE. Fax works.  I even don't try to use the email address to send documents to the printer... nothing works.

    I'd appreciate any help.

    Thank you

  • Photosmart Premium C309A: C309A Fault Protection to access the properties of the printer and will not print (Windows 8.1)

    My C309A, connected via USB, my system worked very well through the life of WIndows 7 and Windows 8.1, until this week.

    I did run the software in PS_AIO_05_C309a_Net_Full_Win_WW_140_408 - 4.exe and then this week I received notice that there was a software update. I downloaded and installed PS_AIO_05_C309a_Net_Full_Win_WW_140_408 - 5.exe, and now my printer does not print.

    I uninstalled the previous version, without error and installed this new version, also without error. But, when I click on printer properties

    I get a protection fault.

    If I try to print a test page, the system hangs for a few minutes, then the devices and printer page is closed (with no message).

    I tried the Ethernet connection instead, but that made no difference.

    Interestingly, even if printing does not work, scanning and fax are. I can connect to the scanner from Paperport or Adobe Photoshop Elements.

    I uninstalled the software several times and tried both the old and the new, and they both do it.

    I tried to run print and Scan of the doctor. Who says that the driver is missing some files and to uninstall and reinstall, but I did it at least 6 times without success.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Stan

    FWIW, I have set the printer by improving the system to 10 Windows (which went very well). It works fine now.
