Default Parallel to USB connection - can it be done?
Hey all,

I have a perfectly good Laser Printer of the older variety with a standard Parallel conection (no network option) My Laptop only has USB ports. I tried my local Dick Smiths for an adapter but it doesn't seem to be available.

Anyone seen or know where I can get one?
