HP Recommended
Product: LaserJet Pro MFP 4101fdw

Printer: HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4101fdw 

 

Issue: After attempting to use the network wizard to connect the device to a wifi network. A failure message prompts and when select "Network settings" or "Retry" it swaps to an infinite "Retreiving pairing code". 

 

I have let it sit, power cycled, drained power and restarted. Left unplugged for hours at a time. No matter what I do to the device itself, it always starts up and gives the network connection failure followed by the infinite "Retreiving pairing code" message. 

 

I dont understand how each year HP printers get more and more frustrating to use and maintain as an IT department. 100+ printers are about to become Konica Minolta in my US and EMEA shops real quick.
