Imprimante initialize en boucle

[Zakaelmar]

Est-ce que quelqu'un sait comment réinitialiser le MFP 179 fnw aux paramètres d'usine ?

Mon problème est que l'imprimante continue de s'initialiser.

Apparaissent à l'écran les éléments suivants :

Initialisation du système

Échauffement

Prêt à copier

Téléphone

Initialisation du système

et ainsi de suite en boucle

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi la réponse à cette question ailleurs dans le forum n'a pas été rendue publique ?

Does anyone know how to reset the MFP 179 fnw to factory settings?

My problem is that the printer keeps initializing.

The following appears on the screen:

System Initializing

Warming Up

Ready to Copy

Phone

System Initializing

and so on in a loop.

I don't understand why the answer to this question elsewhere in the forum hasn't

 

 

been made public.

Hi @Zakaelmar,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

We understand how frustrating it is when your HP Color Laser MFP 179fnw keeps looping through System Initializing → Warming Up → Ready to Copy → Phone → System Initializing and never becomes fully operational. This usually indicates a firmware or configuration issue.

Steps to Reset and Resolve Initialization Loop

Step 1: Perform a Power Reset

1. Turn off the printer.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the wall outlet.
3. Wait 60 seconds.
4. Plug the power cord directly into a wall outlet (avoid surge protectors).
5. Turn the printer back on.

Step 2: Factory Reset the Printer

If the printer powers on but continues looping:

1. On the control panel, press Menu.
2. Navigate to:
   System Setup → Admin Settings → Clear Settings → Restore Factory Defaults.
3. Confirm the reset.
   (Note: This will erase all custom settings, including network configurations.)

Step 3: Update Printer Firmware

A corrupted or outdated firmware can cause repeated initialization:

• Download the latest firmware from HP:
  👉 HP Color Laser MFP 179fnw Software and Driver Downloads | HP® Support
• Install via USB or HP app.

Step 4: Reconfigure Network Settings

After the reset:

• Use the Wireless Setup Wizard or the HP app to reconnect to Wi-Fi.
• If using Ethernet, ensure the cable and router port are active.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have an amazing day!
