| | HID.DLL Error causes USB printer communications error My daughter's Laptop has a HID.DLL error that pops up several times during the PC boot up. The problem is also causing a "Communications Error" when she attempts to print a page on her printer. Dell's famous fix is to formate the HD and reload OS. I personally think that the easy way out. Anyone got any suggestions how to clear the HID.DLL error and I think that will resolve my printer communications error? |

| | RE: HID.DLL Error causes USB printer communications error Do you have USB 2.0 installed? Check in Device manager to see how your USB controllers are.

| | RE: HID.DLL Error causes USB printer communications error Thanks for the reply Mick. Yes. USB 2.0 is installed. There are no error showing in the USB controllers in the Device Manager.
