Same problem:
Virtual PC 7
E-MAC
VPC sees the Virtual machine, spools, then locks-up.
So,
I loaded the HP6940 print driver in Windows. VPC sees the 6940 when selected, spools, then locks-up.
I remembered to enable the USB port.
The printer acts normally on the Mac side.
Any ideas?

YOU MUST INSTALL THE EPSON AP3260 DRIVER TO GET IT TO WORK. DOESN'T
MATTER WHAT KIND OF PRINTER YOU ARE USING.
