hi Alabalcho, thanks for your reply

I tried another usb port and it still has the same issue, i have a keyboard and mouse into other usb ports that work, it says 'printer detected and please wait until installation completes, then after about 5 minutes it says 'The printer is not detected, check the connection'. ive made sure i onlyconnect and power on the printer after the installation is done and when i am prompt. cant see to work out why this is not working, any ideas guys?

thanks heaps
