Look for CD that came with printer to install drivers on your computer. If that is not available, you can search the internet for printer drivers for your specific printer. Make sure your computer has all it's current Microsoft updates too (many times newer printer drivers don't get added to the updates right away).
Before we conclude that cable is faulty, we have few things that need to be checked.
In the device manager check for "Other Devices" and expand it, you may see an device with exclamation sign on it. Right click and uninstall the device.
Disconnect the printer USB and reconnect it back.
Windows 7 detects the hardware and automatically installs the correct driver.
Note:When you connect the USB cable to the printer, and then to the computer, Windows 7 activates Windows Update. Windows Update searches online for the most recent product driver on the Windows Update site. If the online driver is more recent than the driver stored in Windows 7, the computer downloads and installs the updated driver.The Windows Update process takes place automatically. Therefore, you might not notice that the process is in progress. If you dont see any notification on connecting the printer, try plugging to different USB port. If non if these works, replace the cable. Good Luck!!
Dear first uninstall the driver from hardware and then remove the printer. Now install the printer software and then plugged printer again. The sign will finish and it work really perfect.
I would try unplugging again, and uninstalling the printer from the computer. Then reboot the computer, and re-install the printer and drivers, being sure to get the latest driver from the internet. Maybe this will help. If not, it might be time for a new printer. Good luck!
The Router won't affect the printer. Try a repair, go into Start/Settings/Control panel/Add remove programs, find the printer software in the list and if there's an option to repair, go for it. If not...
You may need to update your driver:
