We have an older Compaq server PIII with no USB port. Some users are now having printers at home that use a USB cable. When I try to install the USB printer driver on the server, I the installation stop and give me an error that there is not USB port on this computer. Does a work-around for this problem?
 
What if you just went with the old reliable UniversalPrinterDriver and bypass the installation of the USB-specific driver on the server? I connect from home regularly with two separate PCs--one of which has a USB MFP device that autocreates without fail everytime.
