takkkkkkk Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I have a laser printer that is attached to the usb on the motherboard, but for some reason no matter what I do, my samsung driver software cannot detect the printer. Is there anything I can do to find out what is preventing it from deletecting the usb? in the VM edit window, I do have the device selected. Link to comment
dlandon Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 You've passed the usb port to the vm for the printer haven't you? What os is the vm? Link to comment

dlandon Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I've got a usb Samsung printer in a Windows 10 vm and it works fine. Not sure what you are having trouble with. Is it plugged into a usb 3 port? Link to comment

Is it plugged into a usb 3 port? did the universal printer detect the printer?? I'm assuming you have it plugged it into the mobo USB?? Link to comment
takkkkkkk Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 I was looking into the device manager, and within the USB controller, I see USB Priting Support with the "!" mark on it, when clicked,status shows This device cannot start. (Code 10) Insufficient system resources exist to complete the API. Could this be the cause of the issue?? Link to comment
johnodon Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Be certain that WIN10 is identifying the printer correctly. I have an older HP Laserjet 5M (network). Windows 10 sees it as another model of printer altogether...not even close. Win8 and Win7 identified it fine. In the end, I have to pick the correct printer from the list after performing a Windows Update. John Link to comment
takkkkkkk Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 When I plug it into my laptop (Win10 same version), it works fine. so my assumption is that it's not Windows, although I'm not sure though... Link to comment
takkkkkkk Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Worked! Just gave a shot at using the USB 3.0 fix http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=41922.0 I don't know why, but it lookslike the fix in the site above can be used for 2.0 as well. Link to comment
