Unable to Print

[Kipu2021]

So: A day or so ago, I needed an extra USB slot for my Camera, so I disconnected my Printer, plugged in my Camera, uploaded my pictures, then disconnected my Camera, plugged my printer back in, and didn't think twice about it. The person who shares my computer logged on after I Fast-User-Switched to login screen, and found herself inable to print. She notified me, she logged off, I logged back in. I was able to print.

When I open my printer program, "Epson Stylus R300", it freezes. Same goes for Printer Setup Utility, but only on my friends account. After deleting both the printers from the setup list from System Preferences, Printer Setup Utility functioned normally until I tried to add my printer again, at which point, it added the printer, then froze. I copied the Epson Stylus R300 app from the functioning account to the non-printing account, but to no avail.

Ideas?

Launch Printer Setup Utility, then go to the Printer Setup Utility menu and select "Reset Printing System...". Click Reset.

Okay, Fixed it. Turns out when I disconnected my Camera, I forgot to eject it, and it left an after-image of the drive, on my drive, and invisibly occupied my USB slot.

Solution: Reconnect camera, disconnect properly, reattach Printer, reinstall driver. Then it was fixed.

Thanks.
