How connect USB printer to printer port?


How connect USB printer to printer port?

Assuming that your printer have a USB port on it, all you do is connect your USB cable between the printer and any of your computer's USB ports.



If you haven't get one, a USB printer cable will cost you lb5 - lb10 at any good computer store.



Assuming that you are using a lawfully recent installation of Windows, such as Win XP, your PC should automatically detect the printer, install any necessary drivers and away you walk.



Good Luck !
Plug it in. Or is within some reason you can't?
plug it into a usb port on the laptop
With a cable I WOULD IMAGINE.
I believe that you can get a USB / Printer cable convertor... but not sure if this works both ways - ie USB to Parallel cable or Parallel Port to USB cable.
You can buy a usb to parellel converter at any computer store - Compusa, etc. It will cost you almost $17.

Plug the usb end within the printer and the parellel end within the LPT port and Windows will find the printer.
