PLEASE HELP!!! Printer Can't Communication w/Computer

It sounds like I am having the same problem as EatonD and I am completely frustrated!!  All of the sudden my printer would not work, kept getting message "Printer Cannot Communicate with Computer".  Spent over 4 hrs total to Dell Tech Sppt.  Here's what I've tried:
-uninstalled/reinstalled USB Root Hubs
-restored computer to earlier date
-bought new USB cable
-bought new printer
Still not working...  Man, I hope someone's got a clue on this one cuz it doesn't seem like Dell Spt does.  Last time i spoke with them, they said I should try replacing my motherboard...
 
PLEASE HELP ME!!!

    Which model of printer are you using, and did you purchase the same model when you bought a new one?  Thanks for the extra info!

    And it's doing the same thing on the HP as it was on the A940?

    no, this time it doesn't even recognize that a printer is installed.
