Re: [LUG] Parallel printer - to USB

As a final post on this thread, I bought a printer USB lead today, cost
just Â4.99. Came home, removed the parallel cable and installed the new
cable, turned on the printer and the computer immediately installed the
new printer for me. I have tested it and it works just fine.

I still can't believe that I did not realise that the USB port was
there. Thanks to all who helped me with this. And, yes, the 'new'
printer is found in VBox and it works there too. And I now have a cable
ready for any new printer that I buy. Great result.
