I setup a new laser printer.
During the installation of the driver I am asked where WinXP should find the USB connected port.

By default "LPT1" was selected.

Is that correct?

How can I find out (without printing a test page) if the USB connected laser printer can successfully be
seen by WinXP?

Is the driver active immediately after installation or is re-boot necessary?
