Hi, yes , it says problem with pnp device, but i could not go any further. Would it be printer itself? how to check. I have looked in to it. Other than this unknown device, there is no yellow marked device in non plug and play drivers.
                            How to know the device name?

Hi, Boggins,
                    Will the device be other than the printer? Should i unplug all the usb devices like mouse, keyboard to know which device is troubling me.
                             When i unplug and plugging back, i get the usb device malfunctioned and so i assume that it is the device. Is there a chance that the device is some other.
                                   What my staus diagram tells. It seems normal, i could hear the printer inner parts moving with sound. I thought this is because of the power plug.
                                        how to cure this? There is no specific hardware id and it is usb\unkown. how to find it?
                                 did not you notice the lifeless printer icon in my enclosure

Boggin:
Yes I had noticed the unmarked printer icon.

When you get the page set up prior to printing, at the top will list which printer it's going to use.

What do you have listed ?

I've attached what mine shows.

As you can see from my Devices and Printers, I have two - that's because my printer is wireless so I have to make the Network one the default.

Are you getting an Unknown Device in Device Manager ?

jraju:
Hi, I enclose mine herewith
Why then the printer is showing as if it has lost the blood  in .
It is interesting that keyboard is shown as unknown device. But it is working properly. How it is shown.Also see that port0001 and hub0006 is shown as not connected which is shown as problematic device in msinfo32.
               Could you suggest some solution for this . How key board is shown as unknown. It is working properly.

Boggin:
It's listing it as Unknown because it doesn't know the manufacturer - nothing to worry about.

I was asking if there were any Unknown Devices listed in Device Manager....
