If you installed the hp psc software as requested on the setup poster and Microsoft’s New Hardware Found message did not appear

If you are a Windows 98/2000/ME/XP user, a series of Microsoft New Hardware Found messages should have appeared on your screen after software installation and after the HP PSC was connected to your computer.

If the Microsoft messages did not appear, try the following:

•Verify that you are using a full-speed (12 Mbps) USB cable and that it does not exceed 3 meters in length (9.8 feet).

•Verify that the computer is USB-ready. For more information about determining whether your computer is USB-ready, see your computer’s documentation or check with the computer’s manufacturer.

•Verify that the cable is plugged fully into your HP PSC and directly connected to the USB port on your computer. After the cable is connected properly, turn your HP PSC off and then on again.
