USB printer not detected on satellite series?

Hello

Have a laptop Toshiba Equium and today I bought a printer from a different manufacture.
USB cable is not supplied with the printer (not good things) and so had to buy a.

Laptop does not accept the USB cable saying something like USB isn't signwritten with the laptop?
I have no idea what has happened?

I'm sure that the printer is 100% and the USB's all nine... the majority of the facility took place until this problem is with the USB
The laptop never had a printer connected before in 18 months of ownership.

Any help!

Thank you

Hello

First of all, you must make sure that you bought a straight cable and which is compatible with the laptop.
My sister uses a USB printer and the cable that she bought looks like this;

But the note man; You should check this printer installation instructions.
Sometimes the driver (shipped with the printer) must be installed before you connect the printer to the computer!

What you could do to first remove the USB ports, controllers from Device Manager and reboot the laptop.
After restarting again the USB ports must be installed again.

After this short stage, you continue with the installation of the printer described in the manual!

Good bye

  • Vodacom k3772-Z not detected on Satellite L755 USB 3.0 port

    Good day to all,

    I kinda a strange problem, the company that I work received point on the toshiba Satellite L755 PSK2YE and a box of vodacom K3772-Z modems for distribution to our customers.

    We picked up that these modems are not detected at all when plugged in the port of USB3 laptops left side (we tried 3 modems on machine Ong 3 with the same result each time)

    Modems work perfectly well when it is connected to the usb ports on right 2 and all the rest that we connected to works of 3 usb port very well including older models of modems.

    I also tested the modem on another machine of 3 USB (also using the usb controller 3 renesas) and it works beautifully.

    I have notcied that if you disable the usb controller 3 on the laptop and turn it back on with the stick of 3 g connected to the unit is detected correctly however if you unplug in and try again once it does detect it yet.

    It's using the latest drivers and firmware.

    I tried to find a solution online but had no chance.

    Any ideas what could be the cause?

    > Modems work perfectly well when it is connected to the usb ports on right 2 and all the rest that we connected to works of 3 usb port very well including older models of modems.

    From my point of view it would mean for computer laptop USB 3.0 port works correctly and, possibly, there is a compatibility problem between the modem and the USB 3.0 port. Maybe you should contact check the modem manufacturer support page for more information

    I read on some forums that many people had problems to install this modem using Win 7 64 bit with 32-bit system was not a problem, someone used the drivers released for modem K4505.

  • Re: Bluetooth hardware not detected on Satellite M40-145

    Hello

    I recently changed the HD of my Satellite M40-145. I have successfully used the recovery CD, office etc, and now everything seems to work fine... All except the Bluetooth, it is not detected (this laptop has a Bluetooth chip internal). It does not appear on the Device Manager list. I was reading some FAQ in the web of Bluetooth Toshiba and tried to install it again Toshiba Bluetooth Stack but there is still not detected. Any idea?, any solution?

    Thanks in advance for your attention (and I apologize for my bad English)

    If your laptop is preinstalled with original recovery image please activate the BT module (WLAN WIFI switch must be ON, and then use the FN + F8 key combination) and I hope that BT's standard installation starts automatically.

    When you are finished Device Manager check again. The components of BT enabled and installed should appear correctly.

  • USB mouse not detected at startup.

    Hello

    My new HP USB mouse is not detected when I start my PC. I have to unplug & plug to make it work every time. My USB ports are fine and my previous USB mouse still works fine. I deleted installation driver from the Device Manager, but no utility.

    I have Windows XP.

    Shaan-

    HiShaan,

    I suggest you contact the manufacturer of the computer and check if USB devices is enabled in the BIOS and enable it and check if the USB mouse is detected when you start the computer.

    NOTE: Changing the BIOS / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from configuration can resolved BIOS/CMOS settings. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    You can also check if the Interface device access human service is set to automatic and started. You can change it accordingly and check if it helps. To do this follow the steps below:

    1. Click Start and click Run.
    2. In the Run dialog box, type services.msc and click Ok.
    3. In the services window, scroll down to Human Interface device.
    4. ClickHuman double Interface of device service and click the general tab.
    5. Change the startup to automatic type, then click on apply.
    6. Click Start, and then click OK.

    Restart the computer and check if the USB mouse works fine when the windows start.

    I hope this helps. Let us know the result.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • USB printer not recognized after Windows update

    OT: usb device not recognized

    After that suddenly stop, reboot, done, the device is plugged in where the printer indicates that it does not recognize the device. I said abattissent unplug it and reconnect it and if it doesn't work me to replace... I re install the driver for the Hpdeskjet940c but nothing works...

    Hello grasshopper.

    This problem may be caused mainly by broken printer drivers, this could have been caused when you installed the updates. I suggest that you start with a restoration of the system on the computer by choosing a restore point when it was working fine.

    a. Click Start, type system restore in the search box and then in the list click on the system restore program.

    b. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.

    d. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

    e. click Finish.

    You can see the following article for reference:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/system-restore

    You can also try driver restore on the computer and check if it helps.

    To roll back a driver in Windows send the driver to the version that was finally installed for the device. Restoring a driver is an easy way to return a driver for a working version when a driver update fails to fix a problem or maybe even a new problem.

    a. open the Device Manager. To do this, click Start, type device in the area Manager search and then click on Device Manager in the list programs.

    b. right click on the device for which the previous version of the driver is desired and then click Properties.

    c. click the tab drivers.

    d. click on Roll Back Driver.

  • USB connection not detected for Samsung Fascinate

    I have a smart phone Samsung Fascinate 1500.  When I connect it by USB to my computer, the computer no longer detects it as a media device or mass storage mode (although it worked fine the first few times).  The phone also does not detect the connection and simply seeks to charge the battery.  I downloaded the latest drivers and tried allowing pop ups without success.  Any ideas?  I cannot download my music, and it's a lot of time to transfer photos by other means..., including that I had to buy a SD card adapter.

    The USB port works with other devices.  I don't think that the USB cord to my phone is the problem, as others have shared this problem in other forums.  Does anyone have a solution?

    Hi Lin,

    1. have you tried to connect the phone to another computer?

    2. have you made any recent changes of hardware software on the computer?

    Test the device on another computer. Additionally, make sure that the software provided with the Samsung phone is updated.

    The player and the hub are not compatible I've seen. Maybe try a different HUB.
    (Is the HUB you use powered, otherwise this could also be a possible cause of wiring).

    I hope this helps.
