4 printers via usb to 1 computer

[BradK]

I'm trying to connect 4 pixma 6820s to 1 PC via a USB hub. I can connect 1, but connecting the 2nd knocks the 1st offline. I've tried with the 1st on and also off. Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted!

Hello,

Canon printers are not supported with USB hubs. They are desgined to be connected directly to a computer when connecting with a USB cord.

Thank you for the response.

I also cannot attach more than 1 Pixma printer to the same PC via USB on a PC with 7 USB ports.

I also cannot address more than 1 Pixma printer via wifi

Do I need a dedicated PC for each printer?
