topic problem with printer / usb driver in PCs & Accessories https://community.sonylatvija.com/t5/pcs-accessories/problem-with-printer-usb-driver/m-p/56003#M67665 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi everyone,<BR /><BR />I have a vaio VGN-N11S/W and I'm having problems with the installation of my HP printer. First I thought it was the problem of the printer driver, but now I'm starting to think it's because of my USB driver. When i use a plug and play usb device these days it doesn't actually 'plug and play' because windows is constantly asking for driver install (sensed a new hardware). It did the same thing when i tried to install my printer using USB. It acknowledges the new hardware, but won't finish the driver installation (at the end it says there's a problem with an INF file). The printer driver software itself stops halfway through the installation because it can't detect the printer (while it's connected). Adding a new printer manually was my last resort and it led to nothing because there is no (virtual) USB001 port in the ports-list. Adding an USB port myself didn't work either. The damned thing just won't print.<BR /><BR />HP Helpdesk suggested changing language (right..) and reinstalling windows on my C: drive, because I played around with windows services (which I set back to default again). Before really reinstalling or repairing stuff I'd rather like to have some advice from other people. <BR /><BR />Sony driver pack only has USBmouse driver, no other usb related drivers or updates. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 23 Oct 2007 13:48:59 GMT hulimeat 2007-10-23T13:48:59Z problem with printer / usb driver https://community.sonylatvija.com/t5/pcs-accessories/problem-with-printer-usb-driver/m-p/56003#M67665 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi everyone,<BR /><BR />I have a vaio VGN-N11S/W and I'm having problems with the installation of my HP printer.
