Hi:

I have two printers connect to my PC using a USB hub.
When I tried to print to one of the printers the system
(Windows XP)freezes.

Is it possible to have two USB printers running at the
same time off of one USB hub??
Thanks
 
Why would that make a difference? Surely all printers are independently
powered and only receive "data" via the USB connection.
 
It shouldn't do but if you do an archive search for postings in this group
at Google, you'll see it does seem to have an effect.

As does using any hub (powered or unpowered).

Try connecting one of the printers directly to the USB connector without
using the hub. See if that works. Then, try the other directly connected.

Let us know.
