Printers and USB flash drives not showing up in VM

HI.

Two current problems;

#1 My printer and USB flash drives don't seem to be "registering" or showing up in the bottom right corner of the VMware window that control periferals.

Unplugging/restarting printers and drives, or restarting Window or VMware doesn't seem to fix it.

#2 Right now I have to manually click on the USB printer icon in the bottom right corner of the VMWare window to toggle the printer between the Mac side and VM side.  Is there way to have both the PC and Mac send print jobs to the printer without toggling this icon?  I've already checked off the setting to allow the VM to use the default MAc printer.

Thanks,

Ian
