• LaserJet 400 M401n local printer problem

  I work for a company with remote office environment.

  We have just recently swtched to a new model of small laser printer for the use of the local printer, and I have problems with the first we set up. The LaserJet M401n first was the installation of one of our field technicians program. They connected the device via USB for users HP Elitebook 2540p on docking station and installed the printer using the software from the cd provided and it worked fine.

  End user required to move the printer away from the office, so the USB and power supply were disconnected from the printer and it has been moved and reconnected. After that, the computer showed that the printer is offline. Option of printing of the disabled user, but every time jobs have been sent to the queue, offline they errored quickly.

  I worked with the user remotely and deleted the printer in printers and faxes and print driver from the options in the server properties in this window. I had the user re - connect the printer, but it was not to recognize that something has been connected.

  I went into Device Manager, but I don't see any options to print USB media or DOT4 print media (which is usually the virtual USB port.) There were several devices named "USB Composite Device" and a device called a "USB Mass Storage Device". There are no data storage devices or memory cards connected to the laptop. After removing everyone from the Device Manager, I had the user he disconnect/reconnect the USB from the printer. At this point, the printer has been recognized as connected and adding hardware wizad came. At the same time, a HP Installer utility began. I checked in my computer and there is a removable storage device that provided this installer. It seems that this printer can be a memory chip that contains the software and drivers required.

  I used the HP Installer and installed all the software and drivers, and the printer started working again.

  A week or two later, the user has contacted me and the Office has had some changes made, then the printer must have been dissconnected and resumed contact with a long USB cable. The same problem resurfaced. The printer is connected and even shows like ready. Jobs fail when submitted, and reconnect the cables or rebooting doesn't fix it.

  At this point, I wiped out all the HP report printer software and drivers, removed something that looke HP printer partner since the Device Manager, unplugged the printer and restarted the computer. I connected the printer after the restart and inserted the CD that came with the printer. I used Device Manager to install the printer driver and the print media files on the CD USB (I had to close the HP Installation Wizard about 10 times more it kept popping up). At this stage that the printer has been installed and operational, but when logged in with admin account, the printer should always be prompted for the HP installation software that seems to be running from a USB device stored inside the printer. Which is not "very important, but when I looked at the same way of dissconnected and reconnect the USB cable from the docking station, the printer has stopped printing again.

  The laptop is a HP 2540p with a docking station. He seems to have the same problems when we use one of the USB ports on the docking station or the laptop itself.

  In our company, we run a range of McAfee as VSE, MEE, MEE/PBA, DLP products.

  I will try to upgrade the firmware of the printer and the laptop BIOS. I also asked for one of this model of printers be ordered for our test lab see if we can reproduce the problem on other machines

  Ideas or recommendations would be appreciated.

  bigbankitguy,

  You mentioned that the printer is connected via USB, is that still OK? I want to try the following:

  1. disable Smart Install via the control panel. (Small icon tool and equipment) Configuration menu > Services > scroll Smart Install > DESACT

  Restart your computer and see if that solves your problem. If you continue to have problems, try the following:

  2. go into your task manager > Services tab > click on the button in the lower right of Services > locate HP DS Service > set to automatic; If stopped and then start the service.

  Restart the computer.

• HP LaserJet 400 ColorMFP M475D: Where I found the Documentation MIB?

  Hello!

  I'm trying to monitor a printer, a HP LaserJet 400 ColorMFP M475D and to move forward with what I need device MIB. Thus, the HP Forum help me with this information in the last month in this thread.

  But, MIB has a lot of information and I don't know what they mean. This type of file have a documentation? I just found the MIB repository, but they documentation I don't know.

  Could someone answer if it have a documentation?

  Thank you!

  The format of MIB data (for printers and other devices) follow a set of standards that is not defined by HP.

  A basic description of the MIBs print shops can be found in this document RFC 3085.

  It is not easy to read (don't expect any specification document to be).

  There are probably many applications available to help interpret the MIBs and how to use them with SNMP functions.

  It is not something I know a lot of things, so I can't recommend specific applications.

• LaserJet pro 400 M401n: laserjej hp Pro 400, some fonts don't print not (office use only)

  Hello

  In my office, we use the printer HP Laserjet Pro M401n. about 5 to 10 users, the printer is on a network and not connected to a PC. Is that several types of fonts do not print , only the border is printing. Replaced by a new cartridge. The question is always the same

  >> ..  Is that several types of fonts do not print , only the border is printing...

  You will need to provide more information in order to wait for the appropriate advice.

  For example:

  • Is the problem limited to an application (such as Word) documents or multiple applications or applications?
  • What do you mean by "types of fonts"?
  • Do you mean different fonts (fonts strictly) for example Courier, Arial, Times New?
  • Or do you mean for example regularly, different variants of Bold, Italic, BoldItalic?
  • Or something else?
  • Can you provide a scan of an example? Use the the "insert/edit image" button to insert an image in a post (this may take up to 48 hours to "approve" until it's visible to others).

• RESOLVED - "49 error turn off then" HP LaserJet 400 M451dn

  Last week, I set up not one but 2 printers HP LaserJet 400 M451dn color for a client. It was 2 because I went first to the provider think there is a fault with the printer showed a 49 error randomly, but when I got exactly the same error on the 2nd and the same printer with a different provider, I thought that this may not be the case.

  What I found was - I set up the printer with a static IP address of 192.168.0.218 and excluded this address in the DHCP reservation list, so it is not assigned to another device. If I turned on the printer without the LAN cable connected the printer would say "Ready", but as soon as I connected the LAN cable, it is when that would throw a wobbly and appear "error 49 - Turn off, then on. I tried to reset the default printer without joy.

  THE FIX here IS (or should I say a work around) in the following order:

  (1) remove the LAN / network printer cables.

  (2) to reset the default printer.

  (3) remove the the 192.168.0.218 of the server DHCP reservation.

  (4) delete the IP 192.168.0.218 Server lease.

  (5) connect the LAN cable to the printer.

  (6) can get a new IP address from the printer. Using the same IP address again you go back to step 1 again.

  (7) that's all.

  For some reason, this printer does NOT set a static IP address and put a reserve on the server. Nuts!

  I installed several HP printers that I have in the course of the years and never encountered this problem. As I mentioned above, this is more than a solution to a genuine problem...

  Hope you guys find this post useful.

  I had exactly the same problem with a M451dn of 400 LaserJet, except in a working group with the router making DHCP, use a static address outside DHCP for 2 days and then pool this week had error 49, noticed that when the Lan cable has been disconnected, he seems to have stopped. Printer changed to use DHCP and it works again. (updating the firmware via USB had no effect)

• HP LaserJet 400 colorMFP M475dw scan to E-mail problems

  Hi all!

  I would appreciate a solution to my agony.

  We recently purchased a printer HP LaserJet 400 colorMFP M475dw. Now, I'm putting in place (browser-> Scan--> the outgoing message profile administration) to send scanworks by e-mail but face the following problems:

  1. when it is correctly typed all the credentials, even the "Test & Save" option takes forever. After cople attempts I got it successfully tested.

  2. with the help of my personal gmail accout as the sender, sweeping work takes a lot of time. It stops in the phase connection smtp server for quite a long time before even starting the actual analysis.

  3 using the company newly created accounts of e-mail as a sender, it takes even more time. I timed it just 6 minutes and 23 seconds before the actual analysis.

  4. now, it seems to send the scan ok, but with some first attempts it failed with some general error message asking to try again.

  In my opinion, the time it takes is completely unacceptable. Is this a known problem and is there a workaround?

  Our company emails run on MS Office 365 and I use smtp.office365.com as server smtp port 587 and SSL/TLS ticked (tried also unchecked). As I said with Gmail, it would also slow but still very very very slow.

  Help, please?

  I know this is an old thread, but just in case anyone is still having problems with this - I managed to fix it by disabling IPv6 in network-> advanced in the web server administrator. Connect to smtp.gmail.com from 3 minutes + seconds.

• 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:

  Hello @Pheeoo

  Think about replacement parts this its go device but you only have two options

  To display sound problem usually a combo that you need to get the trainer + Control Panel from one of the 2 could be the problem

  HP part dept store number its 800 227 8164

  The other option will be to return this printer for a discount for another product

  HP 888 447 0078 ext 813 solutions

  You can call them and see what they have to offer with this second option

• 400 LaserJet (M401): HP Laserjet 400 Networking Question

  We have a HP Laserjet 400 that is connected to a wired network. We also have a point of wireless access on the same network. When an ethernet cable is connected to the printer (in a perfect world), the wireless tap stop to avoid conflicts, BUT about 20 minutes of pluging in an ethernet cable, the wireless access point goes down (no longer works and must be restarted).  This isn't the only one who did this access point. The printer has caused to the whole of the network thus go down (5 servers & 40 + workstations). This printer did not do that when we got it (a year ago). Anyone has any suggestions for me doesnot involve making wirless only or replacement of the acess points (for the 3rd time)?

  Thanks in advance,

  Dan

  Huumm... do not know how this can happen.   However, manually turn off the Radio wireless in the printer.  If the printer supports Direct wireless, make sure that this is also disabled.

• Many vertical lines colored on the second side of ADF scanner on HP LaserJet 400 MFP M425dn

  When I scan using the ADF on our MFP HP LaserJet 400 in mode '2-sided' M425dn, the back side of the scans (even-numbered pages in the PDF file) is wiped out by a good number of colored vertical lines. (see attachment)

  I tried to clean the ADF scanning window, but I do not think that these lines are caused by dirt or debris .

  Thank you!

  Ben

  There is a notice for this defect, as such I would say contact you HP warranty - there are a few steps to be taken to eliminate and recalibrate the scanner, if the problem persists then it is a module of formatting of replacement and recalibration is needed.

• Install a printer LPT1 HP LaserJet 4 L printer USB port in Windows 7

  Before this "incident", I was able to print from my HP LaserJet 4 L (LPT1 to USB) printer.  I still have the correct driver.

  I was forced to do a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate and lost the ability to print from my LaserJet.  Windows only allows you to install it as a USB printer, but stop there in recognition.  I need to go beyond that point.

  It was working before and I know it can work again.  I just need help to get there.
