A little while ago I posted regarding a printer not being recognised when 
plugged in to a USB port  on my iMac but then recognised when plugged in to a 
hub.  I have replaced the cable with a high quality USB 2 certified etc one and 
all is now fine.  I believe a combination of quality and length ( a necessary 
5m) were to blame.  Why the same poor quality cable plugged into the hub none 
the less worked is not clear though.  
My thanks to the various useful inputs on this.  In future beware of el 
cheapos!
