Right click on My Computer > Manage > Device Manager. Do you see any yellow exclamation points? If so, you have conflicting devices. I'd need some feedback at this point to continue to help you, but if you double-click on the yellow mark, a window will popup. See if you can troubleshoot or rollback some drivers.

I have installed printer driver for Epson plq-22 but is not printing.what can I do

if you are using parallel port cable you must enable parallel port in bios. if you are using USB cable then for proper installation you must always install software FIRST then START software install, and only plug in printer when SOFTWARE tells you to as that is when it LOOKS for printer. make sure you only use the same usb port if you ever disconnect and re-connect it. you may need to go to PRINTERS and UNINSTALL any UNKNOWN device before re-installing. if you have a printer installed that you no longer use, UNINSTALL it as this can prevent a new printer working.If you insert printer first before software you may have trouble. If you also have 3rd party USB products such as Backup drive, then THAT SOFTWARE may interfere with install process and you may need to uninstall that software to make installing printer work.

Epson AcuLaser C1100 wont print via pc. It prints a test page only directly from the printer. I have tried several usb connectors that work just fine on other printers. So, my question is, is there any way...

The only way I would know how to see if the port is recognized is if when it is plugged in it is recognized as a device in windows.

You could try another computer, but something tells me that this printer's usb port is dead.

Have you installed the drivers for it?

USB device not recognized

Hello,
SOLUTIONS:

Unplug the USB device. It is possible that the connection is not secure and has become loose. This is one of the most common reasons for an error in detecting a USB device.
Use the Device Manager to scan for new and recently installed hardware. From the start menu, select the 'Run' option. In the pop up box, type in Devmgmt.msc and then click 'Ok'. From the 'Action' Mmnu, click 'scan for hardware changes'. This will make Windows recognize any new devices that are installed. Now, close all device managers and control panels. Now see if your computer will read the USB device.

If the above two doesnt work, then try the following,

Disable power management of the USB hub. To disable the power management,

1.Click Start, and then click Run
2.Type devmgmt.msc in the Open box, and then click OK.
3.Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers' node, and then follow these steps for each USB Root Hub that is listed:
4.Right-click the USB Root Hub and then click Properties.
5. Click the Power Management tab.
6. Click to clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box, and then click OK.

PS: If you perform the following procedure on a laptop computer, you may reduce the battery life.

Computer no longer recognizes my scanner

If you are using a multi port USB adapter that allows you to plug many devices into one USB port it may interfere with the scanner. Try uninstalling your Epson driver then download the newest one from the Epson website. http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?oid=88368&prodoid=63070478&BV_UseBVCookie=yes&infoType=Downloads&platform=All&x=27&y=14

Install the newest driver first then plug your scanner into a single USB port on the computer instead of the multi port.

Lacie 250GB Hard Disk is not being recognized by PC (Windows XP)

Some PC's cannot deliver enough power to the USB devices to function properly through the USB port.
Does your Lacie hard disk have a power input connector if so conect a power adapter to it before you put it into your USB port.

Another alternative, get a powered USB hub connect it into your computer then connect the Lacie hard drive to the powered USB hub.

USB plug in Epson Printer RX595

assuming you properly installed the "printer driver".

disconnect the printer.
check Printer & Faxes for printer icon(s) - delete print queue(s) and the printer icon(s).
open device manager and go to Universal Serial Bus Controllers section.

now we check for connectivity: (treat the printer and scanner as separate devices)

connect the printer, USB Printing support must show up (also check Imaging Devices and the scanner must also show up)

IF USB Printing support shows, windows will create a printer icon in the Printers & Faxes, right click choose properties and print a test page.
ELSE, it's the printer and request for a replacement if it is still within 1 year from the date of purchase

USB port problems with hp printer

There are few things to remember using USB.

If your System is in hybernation mode, don't remove any attached USB device, because it will damage your USB driver. This is one of the known problem from microsoft.
If you have to remove any USB device use 'Safely Remove Hardware'.

To remove currepted USB drivers its not enough to remove your printer drivers.

You should un-install the 'Universal Serial Bus Controllers' from Device Manager.
Then re-boot to clean registry.
Install the 'Universal Serial Bus Controllers' using XP Setup CD.
Then check the Mass storage, PDA etc, it should recognized by XP.
Then install printer driver (don't attach printer to system untill setup finish or setup says to connect).

I think it will fix.
Please let me know your feed-back.

Thanks
Iqbal
