I am not sure whether you actually solved the problem.
Following your enquiry I worked up an interest because I needed to print from 3 computers to a USB printer.
Father Christmas brought me a Belkin F5L009uk and it solved all my printing problems. It also allows me to plug in other USB peripherals such as storage devices all of which are visible from all the computers. (1 XP 1 Vista 1 Win7)
Incidentally, with regard to the printer - Each computer connects automatically to the printer when printing then disconnects to allow any other computer to use it - automatically when print is selected.
Thanks Santa. and No I do not have any connection with Belkin.

Mornington,
Glad to hear it's all going well.
I'm sure it is the answer, but still lies in the box until I pluck up sufficient courage to try again.
Strangely enough though, there has been no repitition of the problem since I uninstalled the canon on each devive and reinstalled with updated drivers. On the basis of 'if it ain't broke.......' maybe I'll leave it!!
Merry Christmas and happy printing!
