I have connected a hp1160 printer on usb port using win98 which is shared by other users on win98. My problem is that this printer is becoming offline automatically if it is idle for 10 mins. then you have to restart the computer to make it online. Suggest how i can solve this problem

I would suggest going to the HP Support Site. You did not specify the exact type of printer, so I am not sure what kind you are talking about. You may try and download the newest driver if available or check on the settings of your printer on your computer. Isn't there a Refresh button on the program or printer?
