Hello Peter, I don¹t want to imply that LIBUSB is problematic, it isn¹t it¹s very stable. It sometimes likes be installed while no USB devices are running,. I¹ve never seen a problem with it. If your printer on XP is connected over Ethernet with a USB link, the current version of OPM won¹t see it. OPM 1.0.0 will only work with a USB printer either directly connected or on a hub.
