    I'm using Windows 7 on my dell 64 bit computer.

    In the Control Panel under Devices & Printer my printer or plotter do not show up.

    Anyone know why they do not show up?

    Thanks,

    Mike

    They are turned on and working but I need to change the default printer
    and they do not show up so I can make the change.

    Direct connect (USB) or network devices?
    I assume you have the drivers installed.
