A friend of mine has a USB printer, but wants to attach it to the parallel port of his computer. He asked me if an adapter exists (he doesn't want to install a USB card).
I know there are adapters that allow parallel printers to attach to USB...
But is there an adapter that allows USB printers to attach to the parallel port?
Well yeah, its possible.. you may have to get more than one adapter though.. but why doesnt he want to install a USB card? theyre only like $13 vs. $50 for the adaptors... :confused:Quote:

Office Depot sells a parallel-usb adapter for like $20-30... only one adapter, i'm sure you can find it cheaper
