USB Power Surge Issue

Hi,

I am using Dell Vostro 3401 running windows 10.

I was able to connect my printer earlier and worked well for months. One day, when I insert printer usb cable, it started throwing me error "Power surge on the USB port – A USB device has malfunctioned and exceeded the power limits of its hub port. You should disconnect the device"

Surprisingly, I don't see my printer under Printers & Scanners

I am not sure what went wrong. Of course, I google and followed few suggestions as below:

1. Disable power setting option for USB

2. Uninstalled Universal Serial Bus Controllers

3. Running Hardware troubleshooter.

but issue persist. Is there any way to fix this issue?
