USB Printer Port
I have a new Compaq Presario 2100 Laptop. I am attempting
to attach an HP DeskJet 932C printer through a USB port. It is not working. I contacte the HP site and was instructed to add the printer and select USB Port when asked which printer port to use. I'm using Windows XP and the USB Port is not one of the options. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thanks Gary |

USB Printer Port
See the document at:
http://h20015.www2.hp.com/en/documen...d09187&cat=faq It may be a good idea to remove whatever printer drivers you have already installed and start over. See http://members.shaw.ca/bsanders/Clea...erDrivers.htm. Usually, when you connect a printer to the USB port, Windows XP will discover it automatically and install a driver for it. With many printer drivers, the manufacturer's instructions are to install the driver first, then connect the printer when instructed to do so by the installation program. -- Bruce Sanderson MVP It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
