I recently changed our home wifi router.  In trying to reset the printers wireless settings, I can't get it to recognize the usb connection.  I can get the printer to print, scan and run HP print and scan doctor via usb, so they are talking.  I've verified that I'm using the usb 2.0 port (although I can print through any of the usb ports).  Running windows 7 32 bit.  Thanks for any help.
