    MY USB PRINTERS ARE NOT RECOGNIZED WHEN PLUGGED IN


    All my printers suddenly don't recognize on my laptop when plugged in, but recognize and function properly on other computers.

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the printers' drivers but it didn't work. I later checked the device manager and saw that the USB Printing Support under Universal Serial Bus Controllers has a yellow 'i'.

    Any help is appreciated.

    :)

    usb device not recognized (malfunction) - Printer

    Hope somebody can help a non-techy here.
    I have a canon IX4000 printer, and had been using it without problem. The next day (having touched nothing), I got a USB device not recognized warning, and that it has a malfunction (this is under Windows XP).

    I've tried the following:
    - deinstalling all USB drivers under device manager
    - system restore to several days prior, when I knew the printer was working
    - trying a different USB lead (tested the lead on another device, so know it works)
    - plugged lead into every other available USB port on the computer (front and back).
    - tried plugging it into another computer (comes up with the same malfunction warning)
    - deinstalled the printer drivers, downloaded and reinstalled them.

    Nothing I've tried works. I know the printer functions as I can start it up under service mode and print off test pages without problems, but my computer just won't have it. Could it be a hardware failure, and if not is there anything else I can try that isn't listed above?

    Really grateful to anyone who can reply. *Smile MY USB PRINTERS ARE NOT RECOGNIZED WHEN PLUGGED IN :)

    USB problems

    checked all of those suggestions an still no luck. They show as being there and enabled but doesnt recognize anything you plug into them. I got a driver checker as well and it lists the drivers as up to date. could this be a bad motherboard?
