Windows 10: Windows 11 Virtual USB Printer Port

Upgraded to windows 11. I need to reinstall a virtual usb printer port but it does not seem to be available. Any help would be appreciated.

:)

 

No USB Virtual Printer Ports

When manually installing a printer, I cannot select a USB port because none exist. How do I get the virtual printer ports for USB001, USB002, USB003, etc. to appear in the list?

I have read through many replies and I do NOT need to know how to manually add a printer. Creating a new port does nothing but give a name to something that doesn't exist.

Also, I do NOT need information on updating my driver because I am using the generic/text only driver within Windows.

If the ports don't appear the the port list, what do I have to do so that they will?

Thanks

Hi Asuka,

Assuming that you are using a USB Printer, you may follow the steps on this
thread posted by
Afzal Taher to setup a Printer using USB Virtual Printer Port.

HP Deskjet 9300 printer on Win 7 or Win 8.1

But it does ask you to connect the printer

Step Two
11. Connect the USB cable to the product, and connect the USB cable to the computer. A Device driver software was not successfully installed window opens.

Step three:
3. Click the drop down menu, and then change the port from LPT1 to USB or DOT4.virtual

If you connect the printer in Step two #11 then maybe when you get to Step three #3 there will be USB port in the list.
