Device Manager lists 7 Unknown devices all with Yellow !

Again, ninjaken, Thanks! On rare occasions my Printer HAS appeared in the
Device Manager folder. Before the "errors" occurred when attempting to
print, my Printer was working properly. Each time the "error" has shown up,
which has been numerous times...whenever I've tried to print...I've gone to
the Printer folder (file?), cancelled the document(s), and the Printer returns to "Ready", only to repeat the same the next time I attempt to print. It
might mean something to say that when the printer was working, it would
not work in all the ports...only one. Crazy? I'm not knowledgeable to know
why there are seven (7) listed "unknown devices", all with the yellow!, and in
their properties, shown as "drivers are not installed (Code 28)". Seems to me
the problem points to the USB ports not "reading" my printer. No? You feel
the problem lies within the Printer settings/configurations and not with my
Dell laptop...or perhaps, both? Many thanks for your continued help!
