USB drivers architecture general questions
If you have two identical model USB printers plugged to the same machine, how does the printer know to print to the right one, is it based on what port the printer is plugged into or do all USB devices have unique IDs.
When you plug a USB device in (E.G keyboard) if I understand Windows will normally have the drivers and install them, what confuses me is if I unplug the keyboard and plug into a different USB slot, it will configure for the new slot.
What is Windows doing, is it reinstalling drivers or configuring the port to work with this USB device? and if so what does setting it up mean and where is the information stored.
