I don't know if you got this worked out yet, but I had the same problem running OS9.2. This is what I had to do. When Virtual PC opener panel comes up click on "Settings", near the bottom it has "USB devices used",
click on that and then select your USB printer. OK. then start up Virtual PC.

One other thing, sometimes I get a message (even though the settings are correct) that it cannot print to that device. Disconnect the USB cable from the printer and replug. That should clear the path.

Good Luck!
