How can I stop Parallels 'stealing' my USB printer

[brianwmay]

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

Configuration Editor - USB controller -Connection option - ask me what to do

Oh dear, that simple?

Thanks John, I can now retain the rest of my hair )
