I have very recently purchased a Samsung CLP-500 printer. Appears to
be a good bit of kit. BUT I am having a problem with it. My problem
is: If I switch the printer on or off I lose my Internet connection. I
have to re-start my computer before I can reconnect to the internet. I
have reinstalled the printer driver. Made no difference. The printer
is connected via USB. I also have 2 other printers connected via USB
they have never caused any problems at all. My internet connection is
NTL broadband connected via USB. I am running Windows XP. I have
contacted Samsung and am WWWWWWWWaiting for reply. Can anyone please
give me any ideas on what might be causing the problem--- Cheers
