Hi, guys. I have a 80486 with DOS 7.1 andUSB cards, a USB Pen Drive and the Matto Hairu drivers. Is it possible to use a USB printer with this configuration?

I don't know the drivers you mentioned, but most of dos usb drivers are for usb drives (hard, floppy, cd...) only. You can find usb printer drivers here: http://www.georgpotthast.de/usb/
Good luck!

DI1000DD.SYS is a Masss Storage Driver.

USBASPI.SYS is the USB Controller Chipset Driver.

USBCD1.SYS is a Optical Drie Driver.

The only way to use anything else is to use the USB Driver listed above, but it is limited and presumes one has a USB compatible Motherboard Chipset.
