You can connect as many printers to your computer as long
as you have ports available and switch between them. They
will all show up in your print properties. Just the one
that you use the most as the default.

Yes, unless both printers are USB connected and are the same make and model.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.

Usually. Occasionally, the printer monitor module for one printer will go
whacko when the other printer is actice. The usual solution is to disable
the monitor(s).

Hi, I have a HP Photosmart USB that I have been using
with no problem. I now want to add a Brother 5040 Laser
printer, also USB. XP Pro recognizes both printers, but
when I try to print a test page on the Brother, it prints
out on the HP. Any ideas?
