Eship USB001 vs LPT1

Maybe I'm just crazy but I'm getting no response from my system when I try to print labels using a USB type label printer.
Works just great if on the Packing Station setup I set UPS Label Printer Port to LPT1.
If I try to change it to USB001 or USB002 - I get nothing.
Most updated label printers are using USB now and the big old bulky printer cables are going away. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong or have the same issue?

I don't think the Lanham label formatter handles USB.

Thanks to Alex's post about NET USE here

I was able to figure out an easier way.
Simply install your label printer using your "Add Printer" wizard. It will install the printer on a USB port.
Then goto the properties of the printer. Click the PORTS tab and check off "Enable Printer Pooling"
Then Check off LPT1. So now your printer has two ports checked. When it tries to print to LPT1 and gets no response it then prints to the USB Port.

To cut to the chase - we are ready to return the scale and get the serial connection scale v. usb. Driving us crazy too.
UNLESS...any thoughts out there as to how to "trick" navision and let it use our USB scale?
How do I convert this: Port_#0003.Hub_#0002
Into something Navision-friendly?
