Unable to install 2nd USB Printer - Updated info
Win7 OS on Dell4550
Have a HP2500L color laser installed on USB001 virtual port and running fine. I cannot add another USB printer (Canon S900) without Win7 deleting the HP or apparently overwriting it's driver. When the hp has been deleted, the Canon S900 printer test is printed on the HP printer but only prints one line of misc. characters on each page.
When I get the S900 installed the icon for the HP disappears from the Devices and printer window and the S900 appears but when selected the print the job goes to the HP printer.
Is it possible to have two usb printers installed in Win 7? If so how is it done?
