windows does not acknowledge my printer
Recently had to reinstall win 7. I am trying to use my printer and Windows does not see it. Its a usb cable. I checked everything that one usually should....device manager, no 'other' shown as a problem in the USB controller section, hidden files are exposed, so i could not update or reinstall the latest driver that i have saved. Device and Printers did not show my printer, add printer or device, no help there either. I suspect that i need to install the driver at least, but like I said Device manager does not even show it. My printer worked flawlessly prior the crash...so i am sure its not mechanical.
