Hi all

Im running RedHat 7.3 and Vmware with win2k
I have a HP Deskjet Printer/Scanner USB.
I work with CUPS and everithing is fine. I wont to access the Printer in Windows.
The Problem is that "the Devices is Claimed by another device".
How can i add/remove the Printer to the linux on Command Line.
I boot without Hotplug Manager and can access the Printer in w2k, but i want to deactivate the Scanner in w2k and activate it on Linux without reboot.
