You need to install the latest motherboard drivers for your system. Get them from the manufacturer of your motherboard or from the chipset manufacturer.

USB devices are picky about the sequence in which installation occurs. Be sure to install the printer software before you plug the printer in.

It's not a question of the printer recognizing your USB -- it's more along the lines of the computer not knowing how to talk to the hardware or not understanding what the hardware is saying.
