Description
With our USB Parallel Printer Adapter it's a snap to connect parallel printers to the USB port on your PC or Mac. It is compatible with hundreds of dot matrix, inkjet and laser printers and works with standard printer drivers.
PC Users:
If your new PC does not have a parallel port - there's no need to discard your parallel printer. It's easy to use your parallel printer on a USB port. Even if you still have a parallel port, connecting your printer to the USB port leaves the parallel port free for ZIP drives or other parallel devices. Using your USB port for a printer connection also provides a convenient way to connect multiple printers to your PC.
Mac Users:
Our proprietary Printer Configuration software makes it simple to add your parallel printer to the Print Center under Mac OS X (10.2 or later).
