USB Printer doh!
This is a discussion about USB Printer doh! in the Windows Hardware category; now i get to start a help thread. my neighbors got a unknown via mobo and a p3 i loaded xp last night and everything runs perfect (though slow) they have a hp usb photoprinter that installs and everything but when u try to print more than a line the print fails and the printer disconnects.

so if all the docs are 1 line long then he can use the printer
it looks like a buffer over run. but i cant tell for sure and there is no problems as far as xp says
it's an old mobo because it still has 2 isa slots but it does have a 2x agp
any idears?

Were you using HP usb drivers or the native WinXP drivers?
OP
i tried installing the raw windows drivers but they dont have any for this printer (very new)
So you installed the HP drivers that were included with the printer?
OP
i used the updated ones from the webpage
it was bad usb ports on the mobo
i put in a pci usb ports and everything works perfect
