Is it possible to install 2 printers if both are usb and different brands.
Epson C80 and an hp 7960? If so are they're any tricks to it. TIA

The printers will work oik,but you may have trouble with the monitoring
software.HPs and Epsons have conflicts.In order to see your ink levels you
may need to boot with only that printer installed!

Sure.. you can install many many print devices. I bet if you look in
your printer devices you have more than one listed. several may be
software based such as fax or word processing or scanning etc..

for actual printers, just install the second printer as you did the
first printer.. no tricks to it. of course you can only select one
printer as default so if u want to print to the non default device,
you would need to bring up your print dialogue menu in the program you
are working in.

I have Epson 900 + HP 1350 + Brother (laser printer) and they won't bite
each other yet <g>.
