usb version for presario?
Hello all,
I hope Ive got the right ng. I have a presario 6320us at my office. I got a new copier/scanner that reported I did not have a high speed usb port. I imagine it means 2.0. It reported during the installation that I could "click to know more" at the time. I did not want to do so as I hate interupting usb drivers and software installs with the windows xp pop up windows. I have tried compaqs website, but its not that specific on what type of usb version I have. The computer is also updated with all the latest drivers etc via the windows update feature. Is this computer able to utilize the "higher speed usb" the printer can make use of? If so, is it as simple as a driver update or a bios tweak? Thanks group, SL |

Most likely you do not have USB 2.0 on the 6320US. There is no mention of
USB 2.0 in the QuickSpecs. No driver update or BIOS upgrade will give 2.0 to a machine that doesn't have it. You could, however, install a PCI USB 2.0 card. They are not expensive.

Oh, I wouldn't bother. The printer is unlikely to take real advantage of the
faster speed. Just use it on the USB1.1 port and ignore the message. Tom "HH" wrote in message . net... Most likely you do not have USB 2.0 on the 6320US.

6320 would have USB 1.1 ports. To add USB 2.0 ports you just need to
install a USB 2.0 card. Real easy to do and not very expensive. -- Steve W. "SL" wrote in message ... Hello all, I hope Ive got the right ng. I have a presario 6320us at my office.

I appreciate the info folks...all of you. The printer does seem to do very
nicely at the current speed. It would probably do more harm than good trying to make it move that .02 seconds faster thanks, Sean L "Tom Scales" wrote in message ... Oh, I wouldn't bother.
