Not sure if this is right place to ask this?
openSUSE 11.0, linux 2.6.25.11-0.1-pae, VirtualBox-1.6.2_31466_openSUSE103-1
I get the following error when I click Setting in the Vbox manager. If I
give it an OK I get the management screen and it shows 1 active usb device.
It my usb printer.
I was able to print the test page from XP Home the first time, but now I
cannot print anything from XP. Prints fine from Linux.
Could not load the Host USB Proxy Service (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). The service
might be not installed on the host computer.

No I downloaded the SUN version with usb support. It was a 10.3 rpm which
seemed to work fine until today when i get the mentioned error message. At
first I was able to print to the printer thru cups on the host linux
system.

yes it does and thats the one I installed. My problem is my print connects
to my host as a usb device (Xerox Phaser 6120).

Not using the SUSE version as it is OSE and has no usb support.

Thanks for the response. I’ll look on the SUN site for any type of help or
clues. If I find an answer I’ll post it.
