If you've installed the drivers, try using a different USB port...as well as checking the "PORTS" tab under Printer Properties to be sure that the port selected is in fact a USB port, and it didn't somehow switch to an LPT1 port (I've seen that happen before)
About the noise, I'd pull out all of your imaging parts (Drum/Developer/Transfer Belt) and inspect them for worn or broken gears...then reinstall them. They might have shifted slightly out of position...plus you may get lucky and notice a flat spot, or place where a drum or the transfer belt hangs up or sticks. That may wind up addressing both your issues.
Good luck!
