Epson Printer Correcting USB Problems

If you are having difficulty using your printer with a USB connection, see if your problem is listed below, and take any recommended actions.

   1.USB connections :

USB cables or connections can sometimes be the source of USB problems. Try one or both of these solutions:

·         Use the USB cable recommended in your Printer Basics book.

·         For best results, you should connect the printer directly to the computer's USB port. If you must use multiple USB hubs, we recommend that you connect the printer to the first-tier hub.

   2.Windows operating system :

Your computer must be a Windows Me, 98 or 2000 pre-installed model, or a Windows 98 pre-installed model that was upgraded to Windows Me. You may not be able to install or run the USB printer driver on a computer that does not meet these specifications, or that is not equipped with a built-in USB port.

   3.Printer software installation :

Incorrect or incomplete software installation can lead to USB problems. Take note of the following, and perform the recommended checks to ensure proper installation.

Checking printer software installation for Windows 2000 and XP :

When using Windows 2000 or XP, you must follow the steps in the Start Here sheet packed with the printer to install the printer software. Otherwise, Microsoft's Universal driver may be installed instead. To check if the Universal driver has been installed follow the steps below.

Open the Printers folder and right-click the icon for your printer.

Click Printing Preference on the shortcut menu that appears, then right-click anywhere in the driver.

If About is displayed in the shortcut menu that appears, click it. If a message box with the words "Unidrv Printer Driver" appears, you must reinstall the printer software as described in the Start Here sheet. If About is not displayed, the printer software has been installed correctly.
