I recently bought another printer and hooked it into the USB port 1. The PC told me right away that new hardware was found and I ran the installation disk and the drivers etc. instaled perfectly. The next night I was doing some cable adjustments and rehooked the lexmark USB cable into USB port 2. The PC said new hardware found and I thought this was strange so I went to device manager and sure enough, I had two lexmark devices. Now on the "my computer" window in XP, it says lexmark (1) and lexmark(2). Should I get rid of one of these if I can or leave well enough alone?

Thanks
