HP Deskjet 642c Printer - Manual (Page 22)

When I install the USB software, I get an “Unknown
device is found” message.
Disconnect the USB cable, remove the printer software, and turn
off the computer and printer. Unplug the electrical power to the
printer, then reconnect your printer and restart the USB
software installation.
After I installed my printer, why isn’t my HP
DeskJet printer assigned to an LPT printer port in
the Print dialog box of my software application?
USB uses a different naming convention for USB devices. After
the printer has been installed, you see
USB/DeskJet 640C/
(serial number of your printer).
How can I increase printing speed?
When operated on a USB chain, your printer may become
slower if other USB devices or software applications are being
used while you’re printing. For optimal print performance, avoid
using other devices in the USB chain while printing.
