Hey guys,
First time posting so go easy please,
The situation is this. I came across a situation where somebody had a cheap USB 4 port hub connected to there onboard usb via a usb cable (duh). Anyways, connected to the hub is a printer and a graphics tablet. When the person prints a document the hub lights will turn off and the document will not print. Then a couple of hours later the printer will spit out the required pages.
When the printer is plugged directly into the computer via onboard USB the problem does not occur.
I am wondering whether the hub is infact not 'good' enough to have a printer connected to it and have not a clue what to do to solve the situation.
The computer is running Windows XP pro.
..any assistance appreciated..
