USB 2.0 pop-up when starting printer

I only have USB1 ports. I know they are slower. I just want the pop-up to go
away.

Yea, I use a KVM that has only USB 1.1 so get the same issue with my
printer as it is connected to the KVM. To make the annoying message go away
go to device manager and select any usb hub, right click it and select
properties, go to advanced and check the box that says "don't tell me
about USB errors", click ok and you will nmo longer see that message.
Selecting any USB hub will apply to all USB hubs so you only need to do
that once. I don't notice any printing speed difference between USB 1.1
and 2.0 anyway.

Actually, I just unchecked the "tell me if" box, but thanks for steering me
in the right direction.

Actually, I just had to uncheck the box that said "tell me if a device can
perform faster", but thanks for steering me in the right directio.
