    Hi there, I have been frustrated on several occasions wanting to print from Leopard.

    What had happened was that Parallels was running in Space 4 (and I'd forgotten about it as I have 4Gb RAM) and its 'Found New Hardware' had 'interrupted' my USB printer.

    Is there a way to stop this and only 'give' the printer to Parallels when I want to rather than when 'it' grabs it?

    Thanks
