HP photosmart 7960 question..

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

I have same printer but using WinMe. I don't see it as a 'removable
drive'.
When clicking on Properties of the printer, it says under Details tab,
"Print to following port:USB001 (Virtual Printer Port for USB)"

Yep, I use my HP Photomate as a card reader on my computer, so I would imagine
the 7960 would offer it as well.
