Hello,

I have the above printer configured as a WSD printer over ethernet and shared on a Server 2012 R2 server. The printer display shows no problems and I can print any of the internal reports and diag pages. However, the driver on the server says "Out of paper" and obviously won't print from any of the connected PCs.  The print driver is the "HP LaserJet 200 Color M251 PCL6 Class Driver" version 6.3.9600.17415.  I've updated the firmware to the latest 20150212.  The printer was installed a few months ago and worked fine initially. Any thoughts?

I ended up changing the printer port on the server from WSD to IP and that seemed to resolve it.  I've never had good luck with WSD printer ports.
