Question is how do you remove these? Removing the usb device has not
worked nor has trying to delete the ports, says command is not supported.
Ideas??
TIA.

What was installed was the default drivers in XP. I have not seen any
drivers listed to uninstall. Unless a safeboot is in order to clear them,
I have not tried that. Even uninstalling/reinstalling the printer has not
helped. At this time I can't even get it to print via usb, I'm thinking
its confused and not picking the correct port. That's why I wanted to
clear them all out and start over.
But if you simply remove the printer from control panel, or the Printers
window, it should ask if you want to delete the files as well. What I ended
up doing was marking each plug with the port number, so that if I remove the
plugs, I place them back in the same position.

Well I can't find anything in the registry that I can delete or changed
that makes sense to me. Nor can I delete these devices.
Just thought I would try one more time and see if anyone has any
suggestions on how to get rid of them so I can reinstall just one.
