In fact just turning the printer off and on helped. I then also rebooted and
now the printer works from both the Wheezy host and the virtualbox XP client.
However, there is a new error message early on in booting:
Waiting for /dev to be fully populated...
udevd[425]: failed to execute '/lib/udev/mtp-probe'
'mtp-probe /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.3 1 3'

Yes, but that has now reverted to normal too.

The only external devices are monitor, keyboard, and mouse none of which
(believe it or not) are USB. I do have a USB extender cable connected, but
at the moment nothing is connected to it.
Thanks.
