This is a lifesaver for the printer. I have an old HP Lasterjet printer that didn't work with my computer. We were about to get rid of him when I decided to try again. When I switched to this cable. it worked well. Many Thanks. a lot of!

Refurbished Laserjet Printer

I changed my computer case and couldn't get my HP Laserjet5P to print. I downloaded this and that, played around with it, and nothing worked. Someone mentioned the Gear Head High Speed Parallel USB Adapter so it cost a few bucks and was worth a try. This was the answer to my problem, my printer has been restored and I can get a copy. Good product!

Pros
  • Hands Free
Cons
  • Style 90

This is the third purchase of this device.

We are using this device to connect a Zebra parallel thermal barcode label printer to a USB port. This is the third install and it worked great in any case. First install was on XP now upgraded to Win 7. Second install was straight to Win 7 and now last install was on a new Win 8.1 machine. No drivers were required when installing Win 7 or Win 8.1. It was true plug-in play. You must turn on the printer when connecting the USB cable as it needs power from the printer. I will look for thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Something is wrong

Don't throw away your old laser or other parallel printer!

I have an HP LaserJet 6p and it works just as well as the day I took it out of the box (circa 2000). This cable allows you to use your printer as a USB printer connected to any device that supports USB printers. If your operating system or device does not support or allow printing with a genuine HP LaserJet 6p driver, just use the HP PCL 5 universal driver. It works great. In my setup, I connected it to my Synology NAS DS213j and streamed it to my network, which enabled Airprint and Googleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
