My Lexmark 3150 recently stopped working. It's connect via USB. I have a
webcam hooked up via USB also that still works. My printer is only 4 months
old. I believe it to be a USB problems since my computer (Win XP) doesn't
even recongize that the printer is connected anymore.

I've tried everything from trying to reinstall the software to uninstalling
and reinstalling the USB Hub and Hub root. Still doesn't work. Anyone have
any ideas or have run into this similar problem?

Thanks
