Test the printer on another PC. It could be that the printer has died.

Hi guys,

I have HP deskjet F2180 printer and vaio notebook running vista home
premium. I had been using this printer for 2 years with no trouble, but
recently I' ve moved stuff in my office and when I tried to connect
printer to notebook again, It wouldn't do anything. I plug usb cable to
the usb slot which I always used for it, and pc won't do anything. It
won't show that usb is plugged, it won't install it, NOTHING. I've tried
to reinstall it and when asked during installation to plug usb in I did,
but nothing happend again. It's like pc is not reacting to it. So I
tried other external softs to plug in and all of them working so there's
no problem with my usb slots. I've tried to unplug printer from
electric, restar it, install it, didn't work either. I need printer for
my job and I am very frustrated now. What's wrong? Is it possible that
my usb cable is broken? One day it worked and next day didn't. I
recently got trouble with installing security for server 2005 SP3 not
successful, might that be problem stopping pc from recognizing the
printer? Please HELP.
