....this means that the printer wasn't installed correctly. In windows XP/2000, for a usb printer, you have to install the drivers first. Then, at the prompting of the software, you insert the usb cable so the OS can asign an enumerator to the device. The HP printers are the biggest problem in that they typicaly install alot of other software at the same time. You didn't include the OS or printer type in your question. These are important to know. Sometimes the PC must be rebooted after software/driver installation in order for the changes to take effect.
