Was the printer both plugged in and powered on? The most likely problem is that you have more than one USB host controller. If you simply do a "USBUHCI" or "USBUHCIL" to install the driver for the USB host controller, it will only install the driver for the first host controller (Index 0). That may not be the host controller that the printer is plugged into. Start by doing a "USBHOSTS" to see how many UHCI controllers the computer has, and then try installing USBUHCIL with the different Indexes (USBUHCIL /Index:#), where # are the different indexes (0 through however many controllers you have). That's the "shotgun" approach that will probably get you going. If it doesn't, there are many more extensive troubleshooting steps we can perform, but they are complicated to work through. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
