Problem for Canon CanoScan N340P Flatbed Scanner

Printer Port is used by another device




By Tonna on Jun 18, 2006

" "
Have an Epson Stylus C46 printer which connects directly to the pc rather than via the scanner. They used to work fine together, but now when I try to use the scanner I get "printer port is used by another device". Some advice would be great....

You could try uninstalling the scanner and the printer, and reinstalling them. Try installing the scanner first.

Another thing you can try is to buy a new parallel port card.

Good luck

Just only check and delete error print task queue in all of printers.

Start->settings->printers and faxes.

Right click and open each printer on your machine to find which printer remain error queue and delete it.

Good luck...
