Questions & Answers

Do you have a HP Laserjet 4 Plus?

Trying it out is the only way to know for sure. I'm using an HP LJ 4 plus on Windows 7 and it works fine. The problem is that there are too many variables to be certain.

During testing, a receipt ticket printer from Epson, for example, the TM-1000, actually worked fine with the cable Can you tell me more about T88III?

I reviewed the specifications of your printer and it looks like you need a DB25 serial interface connector, not a centronics type. I do not think it is

Do you think this will work with an HP Deskjet ?

There's no way to know for sure. The method you use to connect the cable affects how you connect it. In this case, I'm using the device to connect a parallel port on my printer to my computer's USB port. As my printer does not have a USB port, I am not sure whether it will work from USB (Printer) to Parallel (Computer) without special drivers and the connections may not be symmetrical.

The laptop I have is an ASUS Can this cable be used with an HP laserjet printer?

It does not matter if the HP Laserjet printer uses the IEEE-1588 standard Centronics 1284B connector (instead of IEEE-1284 Yes, if there's an IEEE-1284C connector) then everything should work fine. (The IEEE-1284C does support a Approximately 1 7/8 inches of length is taken up by the 1284B connector. Your printer will have an IEEE-1494 connector if the connector measurement is less. There is no way to connect this to the 1284C connector.

You'll want to keep this one! Over the past decade, the evolution of computer motherboards and I/O interfaces has almost completely eliminated the parallel port

As a result, I find myself scrambling to find a parallel port adapter for my 20-inch PC In addition to The year is I have an old Canon LBP-E If I update my computer, I will be able to print from a 430 laser printer. In the process of upgrading my system a few years ago I discovered a very nice PCI-based system

We fast forward to today. We have a MicroATX motherboard and an X1 adapter card that works extremely well. As a result, I have decided to replace my MicroATX mini tower with a Lenovo M900 in order to significantly reduce the footprint of my computer. (By the way, I love it. Because my M900 only supports USB I/O devices, such as printers, I had all but decided to give up my old faithful, my Canon LBP-505 Scanner. In order to do that, I did a search on the Internet These adapters connect USB devices to the computer. My eyes were opened when I came across the "Sabrent SBT-300" There are UPPCs. It is Moore's Law, the law of averages. Once on an entire adapter board, these interface components are now confined to a size that fits inside the hood of the Centronics connector. The review concludes with the following points Sabrent's SBT-200 I am happy to say that UPPC works great! It would have been nice to have seen a higher quality Centronics connector, but as the saying goes "you get what you pay for. ". Was it right when I said it worked In order to use your printer, you must install a driver for your operating system. The Windows 10 operating system that I am using is In addition, the Sabrent SBT-120 does not come with any instructions An UPPC package can be downloaded here. There is a link on their website for the proper instructions, and you will have to go to the site to find them. therefore you need some PC knowledge. After configuring the printer port and installing the printer driver, everything worked flawlessly. There is nothing I would rather do than be happy. Sabrent's SBT-200 There's no doubt UPPC is a great product.

There is no need to think about it
5/5

With this USB Centronics adapter, it is as simple as plugging it in and starting up. You are ready to go if your operating system recognizes the printer. In addition to me being an experienced Linux user, my wife is an avid Windows user. With this cable, both computers can be downloaded at the same time. In our current configuration, we're using it on a High End HP LASER and it's quick and easy to plug in, send a print job, and then get back to doing other things (we're both laptop users, so we only visit the printer to run jobs). There is no other way to explain it.

It doesn't require drivers
5/5

Works with an embedded Windows 7 thin client, which is connected to a There's just something about this one. Apparently, they followed the right protocol since the installation was as simple as connecting the cable, and installing printer drivers, and it automatically assigned the correct port to the connection. This program instantly transfers large Corel Draw files to my laser printer. Tried it with hundreds of files, and it worked perfectly every time.

A USB to parallel printer can be connected to a network
5/5

The exact purpose for which I intended it was served. As soon as I plugged the parallel port into the printer then put the USB into my router ASUS RC-S9000, I was very nervous It would be possible to use the A66R. I have confirmed that it shows it as a printer and now my family is using our 1994 HP Laserjet 4L printer as our network printer (These were made in December 1994, so I am assuming that they don't make them as frequently). Obviously, I had to download software on my router to be able to add my printer to my computer, but bear in mind I did this because it had downloadable software for adding printers. I am very happy over all with the cable since it enabled me to accomplish what I set out to do. As well as connecting directly into my computer to the printer, it works fine too. The drivers were found and it was able to find it as a local printer (if you have Windows 7, you will be able to share it with others in.
