M1212nf fails to initialize after firmware update

[MHP13]

HP Absolutely rubbish, hp cant get a solution of this intiallizing problem from more than 2 years. What will they help you, I have bought a new printer and will never ever think of buying an HP printer in future. Thanks for the useless support

I don't suppose this new update would be of any help getting my 1536 ouot of its permant display "firmware curruptready 2 download"?

I have contacted HP support with them telling me only it ismy falult for having downloaded thier firmware and that they can only give me a discount on a much bettern printer thatn I need that ould in the end cost me more than i paid for this one.  They told me the issue can't be repaired but refused to pass me up the line to the supervisor who was 'unavailable"  I have posted a new threadabout the 1536 but dont' much to come from it.  I am currently trying to ocate my proof of purchase to see if they can extend my aranty or come up with another date for it expiration that might put me into the warranty but so far no luck.

Hej Alfred,
Jag ringde numret som du fick i nedan inlägg. Betalade för support, men ingen kunde hjälpa mig, min 1212 var helt inne i initieringsloopen. Efter flera samtal med supporten så gick ärendet "uppåt" hos HP och jag fick en utbytes skrivare. Min garanti hade gått ut.
Stå på dig, för det här är ett fel som är enbart HP´s fel.

We have a m1212NF MFP printer stuck in "initializing" status following a firmware update via the network as well.

Have the same problem. Don't know what to do anymore. The printer just turned into a huge brick. **bleep** you HP.

i'm wondering why HP is sending "private messages" with the answer to the 'initializing' issues.  I too have his problem and don't know what to do.  I'm really confused. Is my hardly-used printer salvageable or not? 

thank you.

Nope. I was hoping you were someone responding with a solution! 🙂
