Loses all network printer connection when connecting a USB Printer

My XP machine is connecting to a few network printers. When I plug another USB printer to my PC, all the network printers are lost, and it doesn't recon the newly connected USB printer neither. If I unplug the USB printer and reboot evyerthing resume normal. When I connect the USB printer, the problem surface again.

This is pretty strange, any suggestion and advice helps.

Thanks!!!

Re: Loses all network printer connection when connecting a USB Printer

wongster,

Which XP Service pack do you have installed? I ask because there are USB Printer disconnect issues that are corrected in XP Service Pack 2.

What is the make/model of your PC, printer, network printer?
