after i received the cable i opened the package and immediately plugged it into the parallel cable from my hp laserjet printer and then into an open usb slot on my computer.

then turn your computer on, let it boot into windows and then plug the other end of the cable into your usb port.

i've been very happy with my printer and have no desire to upgrade while it's still doing a great job, so this cable made it possible to keep it with a new computer.
from www.amazon.com
this cable worked perfectly and my vista computer recognized the hp 6p printer right away.
from www.amazon.com
my hp laserjet 1100 was the only peripheral that used a 36p parallel port to a 25p serial port on the computer so the cheapest and easiest solution was to get an adapter that goes from a 36p male
from www.amazon.com
you just have to tell the computer which usb port you are using and you should be good to go.

SIIG FireWire 800 9-6 Adapter CB-896111-S2

$10.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
makes life much easier to connect a firewire product to computer.
from www.amazon.com
for 6 lousy bucks on a 1500 computer, it should have been shipped with it because 800mb firewire is so new.
from www.amazon.com
the cable fit in one side, and the other side fit into the socket on the computer.
from www.amazon.com
i didn't realize that a new firewire 800 port is standard with the new computer, so this adapter became absolutely necessary for me to use with firewire 400 accessories that are only one or two years
from www.amazon.com
this is likely to become necessary as fw-400 get phased out on newer computers, since many people (self included) have fw-400 devices.
