Topic: windows not detecting printer da vinci 2.0A duo

i got it off a friend for free and am trying to get the USB port working but no matter what i try windows does not register it. I have checked the board and the three led's are lit. I also tried a continuity check on the port which came back fine. Does anyone have any idea of what i can do to either fix the USB port or be able to print with a dead one? i treid copying a gcode to the micro SD but its write protected. The printer is not even appearing in device manager and windows is not making the usual sound it makes when a device is plugged in. I have tried a known working cable to no avail as well

I don't have this printer, but I've had issues with connecting devices to USB 3 ports not being recognized. Have you tried connecting your printer to a USB 2 port on your computer? If your lacks a USB 2 port, you could try connecting a USB 2 hub to your computer and plug the printer into the hub.
