Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdw Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

This needs to be addressed with a firmware update.  For a business class printer to not have a way to set it to wake up when a print job is sent to it is unacceptable. I have no way to wake this printer up after 8 hours of non use.  You have to physically press the power button.  I am in IT and that is not always an option when you support remote sites.  HP fix this issue. It needs to be fixed with a firmware / software update.  Please do your job, do not post anything that does not work.  Get this model you get it to wake up when  print job is sent to it no matter if it is 48 hours since a job was sent to it.  .

Please read my post and unless you have one of these printers do not reply because your answer is not relevant.
