Epson Stylus C64 USB Not working
I have an epson stylus c64 printer which is been used on windows 98
first edition, and apart from once yesterday windows doesnt detect the device. I have tried everything phoned epson tech support and nothing seems to work and it looks like they have now given. My usb cable and ports are fine because i have tried the cable with other devices of mine and also using both usb ports on the computer also work. Today i took the computer to an epson and printer express center (recommend by epson tech support) and it worked fine with usb on his windows xp system but not on mine. I have tried everything. Last night i tried using windows add/remove hardware and right at the end after scanning the system it came up with the follwing message 'Device Installer Error' 'setup cannot load the installer(epusbci.dll) for the epson usb printer hardware being installed contact your hardware vendor' which i have done but because it worked at the shop using usb there is nothing wrong with the printer and they told me to contact my pc manufacturer, but i don't want to go down that road as each vendor will be blaming the other. Does anyone know what could be wrong and what can i do to sort this problem out. I have to point out the printer works fine using the parallel connection but as from time to time i do photocopying i would like my scanner using the parallel port and the printer using usb. Thanks in advance |

Something that you can try, works with stylus 760, remove printer software
through add/remove, access install CD and double click epusbun.exe. Follow on screen intructions. Good luck. wrote in message ...
