  1. USB Printer


    We have two usb printers connected
    DTC1250E and DCP 132W

    As long as they are connected in that order . Then we can set the DCP132W to the default printer and the muster report runs to it . ie right click on a note pad file and it prints to the DC)132W

    We can log off and log on as different users and all stay correct. If the computer reboots and checks the printers to see which is the default . The tick is on the DCP132W but right-clicking on a note pad file is sent to the DTC1250E

    :)

    Mac OSX USB printer problem

    OK i just bought the Canon IP4500 usb printer and installed it on the mac following hte instructions to the letter.

    No printer is found and i cannot add it in the Printer list, cause theres no option for USB printer installation, only Appletalk, Bluetooth, and Windows Printing.

    I have downloaded the latest drivers etc... but no luck *Bang Head :banghead:

    As it is i dont like macs but now with a simple thing as this i dislike them even more.

    Last resort is trying installing the printer on a Vista pc and see if it works, if it does then the mac is up to shit, if it does not install then the printer is up to shit.

    Anyone had a similar problem maybe and how did you overcome it?

  3. printer usb is an older version

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft community. I regret the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you.


    • What is the make and model of the printer and computer?

    • What is the exact error message?

    I suggest you to disable and re-enable the USB controllers. The following steps will uninstall all the USB controllers and then re-install them:

    a. Right click on Start, and then click
    Run.

    b. Type devmgmt.msc and then click
    OK. Device Manager opens.

    c. Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.

    Note: You might have to scroll down the list to find this item.

    d. Right click the first USB controller under
    Universal Serial Bus controllers
    , and then click Uninstall to remove it.

    e. Repeat step 4 for each USB controller that is listed under
    Universal Serial Bus controllers.

    Note: Restart the computer. After the computer starts, Windows will automatically scan for hardware changes and reinstall all the USB controllers that you uninstalled.

    If the issue persists then I suggest you to refer to the following article.

    Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.

    USB 2.0 printer won't work in Win 10/USB 3.0


    A couple more suggestions:
    First, check to see if your motherboard manufacturer has a newer USB controller driver to install. If so, install it.

    Second, try reinstalling all the USB devices:
    Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus Controllers > Right click on each device listed underneath and choose Uninstall (you could leave anything related to USB 3.0 alone) > after you've cleared the list, restart Windows and they will all be reinstalled again.

    See if the printer will work after either of those.

    Also: unplug the USB cable to that printer before doing any procedures, then plug it in after Windows is back up running.
