LaserJet 1000: laserjet 1000 usb or parallel?
I wonder if the port on the Laserjet 1000 series is a USB converted to the parallel port, as the connectors look almost identical.
The port does not seem to be a serial port or standard parallel, it appears the formatted also makes a few USB converter cable.
Users have reported that connect the db-25 connector, or a port series or parallel port does not work. You will need to use the supplied USB cable.

HP laserjet 1200 using windows7, wired to the printer with a USB to parallel adapter
HP laserjet 1200 using windows7. My computer has USB ports, but no parallel port, if the computer is connected to the printer with a USB to parallel adapter. Sometimes works very well, sometimes States printer system as ready, but do not print. Reboot hardware and upon restarting, I got a page to print. Next attempt to print updates the document in cue, but is right there - no error message. Finally, after several reboots, I managed to do print (have no idea how), but now I had to print 20 pages one page at a time. It will print no more than one page, even if I have to print the 20. Next time I start the computer I don't know if the printer will print. Do you need to use the same USB port each time, or are USB to parallel unreliable maps?
Hey renradd!
Unfortunately, in addition to the adapters USB can be unreliable. Only a new printer, I don't know what it will provide you with a fix for this problem. You can try a different card if you have one, but if it still does not work, I would look for in a printer capable of supporting your computer.
I hope this helps!

Hello
If the instructions that you need a cable then you need a cable. On several printers now, you don't need USB cable for Setup (that's why many boxes do not have) and you can run the installation on your computer or a button on the printer.
Kind regards.

HP LaserJet P1102: USB not recognized during installation of HP LaserJet P1102
I have a Sony Vaio VPCEH computer laptop with Windows 7 and when I run the disk I got with the printer on my laptop, that the installation procedure works in what concerns the section "Install printer Software". When you are prompted to turn on the printer and connect the cable USB to the laptop it says 'USB not recognized '. I tried all 4 slots USB into my laptop but the USB still appears as an unknown device with an exclamation point in a yellow triangle. I searched internet solutions and tried to uninstall the unknown device in Device Manager and restart the installation with the disc, I also tried clicking on the unknown device driver software update but it says the software driver is up to date and still, it shows as an unknown device and is not recognized. I also tried to uninstall the HP software from the disc on my laptop and that reinstall but nothing has worked. I felt for over 2 weeks now and have not been able to use it because of this problem and I really need for University, so I would be very happy if someone could please give me a solution to this problem
Hi @Janemaguire,
Have you tried another USB cable?
Because the printer is not detected on the Mac, it may be the USB port of the printer.
What happened when you tried to install the printer on Mac?
Error messages?
What is the model Laserjet P1102w?
Let me know. Thank you.

HP laserjet 1005: usb laserjet 1005 to network connection
I have a usb Hp laserjet 1005 printer, I want to convert it to a wireless printer. This CAN be done?
I have a netgear N600 router for my network.
And also a wireless Epson Xp 960 for photo printing.
Connection Hp laserjet 1005 to the usb port on the Netgear N600 router did not work. Can it work with appropriate software.
Connection laserjet 1005 p for the wireless Epson XP 960 were printed.
Any advce is appreciated.
Using 32 bit win7.
Thank you very much.
Hello
Your printer does not support with/without wire and your router cannot act as a wireless via USB port print server:
http://www.downloads.NETGEAR.com/files/WNDR3700v3_SM_20MAY2011.PDF
You can purchase a wireless print server, BUT believe me, it would cost more than buying a new printer with wireless ready now and 50 percent chance he'll give you a lot of problems. You can also buy a new router that has the option of wireless print server. I don't know to connect two printers.
Kind regards.

How to reinstall LaserJet P1102w USB wireless?
I use Windows XP and have a LaserJet P1102w, who was installed with a USB connection. I have a wireless connection. What I need to first uninstall the USB and then reinstall wireless using the installation disc? If this isn't the case, reinstallation replaces the USB key, or make options USB / wireless?

I tried several times to use the original installation disc, the latest version of the software driver hp Forum, etc. All with no luck. And now, of course, my host system is all messed up with installs partial. I know it works because I saw another W7 - 64 box to connect to the same XP machine via the network. I need measures to clean first the disorder of my current box then the steps to connect to the printer on the XP machine over the network. This is similar to a question last may, who seems to have been abandoned.
Poster 8lives gives the following solution in another thread:
On the Win 7 computer...
Devices and printers
Add a printer
Add a local printer
Select create a new port:
Select Local Port for the port Type:
Enter the name of the network to the XP computer that is. \\XPcomputername\LJprinterid
Install the LaserJet 1020 driver when prompted
This did it for me.

How can I connect my 4300n to my laptop which has only a usb port? OS is win 8.1.
Thanks for any help.Hello
Well, it's time to go and get a new printer or keep it to connect to your old computer. You can't find a good USB / parallel for Windows 8.1 now and you will not be able to find the driver for your printer.
Hope it makes sense.

I have a Canon BJC 250 printer connected to the USB port ieee. Its a printer Workhouse. Never had a paper jam all these years. (1996), I found ink cart. to do this in a thrief store. I can't seem to part with them. His semple to operate and works better than my Dell 725 and the Epson conbo. I would like to know if there is conpatable with Windows 7. I can't install the driver of this OS. If anything can work with other pilots from cannon. Notes; I still have the installation CD. but it will not be installed.
If you go to the website of Canon in the following link, it shows as the latest drivers for XP. In addition, if you click on "Service and support" at this link and then search for "Windows 7", you will find a document that lists the BJC series printers that are supported for Windows 7 and the 250 is not on this list. " Here is the link to Canon: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/bjc_series/bjc_250_series#ServiceAndSupport
I thought that maybe the BJC-240 which is support could be close enough, but based on what follows, where the user asking the question said he tried this driver, apparently we don't: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/canon-bubble-jet-bjc-250-printer/d27af8d2-a770-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5 -

I can't get my printer recognized by plug-and-play. I have installed a printer manually, but still can not get to work. All boards
Hello Kirk,
I'm not sure what you mean by "manually installed", but you need a print driver for the printer recognized by Windows. Go to this page to download the driver you need for whatever version of Windows you have: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?pnameOID=14497&locale=en_US&taskId=135&prodSeriesId=25522&prodTypeId=18972&lang=en&cc=us .
Once you have downloaded the right print driver, I let the computer do the installation. NOTE: you may need to completely uninstall what you've done "manually" so that the correct driver is working correctly. See the HP Web site for more information (I'd do it, but I do not know what operating system you have and its depth of Bit (32 or 64)).
Post here if you need further instructions or assistance (be sure to include your OS and Bit depth). Let me know how you fare.
Kind regards

HOW CAN I GET A HP LASERJET 4V IN ORDER TO PROPERLY USE THE OPERATING SYSTEM TO XP PRO AND USB USING A PARALLEL CABLE?
The printer works at all with this cable?
The cable has recognized and installed by Windows XP when you logged on to the computer?
If the cable has been recognized, what steps have you taken to install the printer then (be as accurate and complete as possible)?
You get an error message? If so, please provide, without paraphrasing.
This printer has already been installed on this computer? If so, with what type of connection?
And especially, what is the brand and model of the USB to parallel cable? Many of them do not work. See, for example, the comments here , which suggests that 25% of the units will simply not work. This seems to be one of these products you should buy at a local store, rather than on the Internet, then you can continue taking it back until you get a working unit.

Connect a printer HP Laserjet 4 parallel via USB using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - HELP!
I have a new Dell PC (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) that does not have a parallel port to connect an old HP Laserjet 4 printer. I bought a USB to parallel to connect the PC to the printer. When turn on/off the printer, W7 installed an IEEE-1284 controller that appears in the unspecified list of devices in the control panel. I "Has added a new printer", select "USB001 virtual printer USB port", then choose the correct printer driver (after "Windows Update" get a longer list). When you try to print a test page, the 'ready' light on the printer starts to print, but nothing else happens.
After experimenting with different settings, I was able to get a page to print that says "* s1M. I don't know how it happened or what it means. This suggests that the PC is 'talk' to the printer. However, I was unable to reproduce this.
HP support was able to help me, and I've been searching for an answer. Someone at - it suggestions? I wouldn't give up using a "workhorse" reliable printer for years. "
You do not have a parallel port on the machine. Whatever it is sent to the parallel port device should fail on writing. Change the port to the port of USB00n, created when you plugged the cable. You will see the port listed in the list of ports. This will usually USB001 when you have not all printers attached otherUSB. Alan Morris Windows printing team;
