Got a new Hp Photosmart 7350 printer. I'm running it on Win 98se. This printer uses USB. When I have it all hooked up and start my computer the bootup hangs just before the desktop comes up. Seems it is looking for the printer. So I have to power off then power on and let the computer go through it's Scandisk mode then the computer will go right through to the desktop and all is fine. If I unplug the USB cable from the computer. Restart the computer the computer boots up fine. Also if I then after the restart replug the USB cable the printer will be found and that works fine too.
Any Idea how I can leave this printer hooked up all the time without going through all these crazy steps.
