i just bought a canon xnu i255.
but my system cannot detect the printer during the driver installation.
and the driver cannot be installed without detecting the printer.
my mothernoard is USB 2 compatible and the printer is USB 2.
wat can be the problem and hoe to resolve
please advise
thanks....
 
Did it come with a driver disk? Did you try to change usb ports? Did you try to unplug in and plug it back in again (my Kodak Digital Camera does this sometimes)?
 
i gt no other printers installed
tried with all my usb ports liao
yes, it came with a driver disk
btw, can a usb 2 device be used on a usb 1 port??
 
be sure that when you install the drivers you dont have it plugged in, sometimes this makes it not work (odd huh?) with a HP printer it can ruin the printer, how fucked up is that? neways yes, you can have more than one device pluged in through 1 usb port, in fact you can have up to 127 devices daisy-chained on one usb port, but no more than that (why would you need 127 usb devices?) neways, yes you can, you can get a usb hub with either 4 or 8 usb ports on it for around $40 (usd)
