HP Printer
Hiya,
Anyone got any suggestions? I've got a HP F4100 printer. Had it since last August. I don't use it a huge amount but in that time I have had to re-install the software well over 15-20 times. I go to print something, it all goes very slow and then says "new hardware detected". It's driving me insane!  Thanks, Kate

Can't really help here but it sounds as if your operating system is suffering incompatibility problems.
I am sure an IT expert will come along soon.

Simon's advice is spot on. I'll add that it could be your USB Root Hub or USB Controller.
Check Device Manager in Control Panel (Hardware is what you're after) and see if there are any yellow marks near USB **** If so, then you need to find the drivers, normally available from the manufacturers website...

And also a cause of the New hardware detection maybe caused by plugging the printer into a different USB port - just thought i'd mention it incase you unplug the printer USB cable when you are not using it...
