I recommend following the first 8 steps below. If your printer driver is listed in step 8, I suspect your chances of this cable working for you are close to 100%. I struggled for a week to get it working. Here's what I ran into: I'm using a very old printer (HP Laserjet iip). When I tried to 'add a printer'…

I've been using this for a few months with an old HP LaserJet 4 that I refurbished myself. I have to say it works fantastic as long as you don't have to plug and unplug things.
