Printers not working-USB Problem ?

I have two printers connected my my Windows XP and I can't get either one to work. I have unplugged them, restarted the PC, nothing works. I have noticed each time I reboot and I go to the Printers & Fax Folder they show up as being Offline. I do turn them to Ready Mode and then a printer error message pops up stating the printer failed to print.

I now remember that I had tried plugging my AT&T Tilt Phone into one of the other USB ports on the PC and up until them the printers had been working.

I am not sure what is going on. Can someone please help me?

Right click a printer..select properties...look at the ports tab....which port is it set to use?

Did they ever work?
