SABRENT Model SBT-UPPC 5 ft. USB to Parallel ( Printer IEEE 1284 ) Cable

Pros: can't thank you enough for this cable. the guy who reviewed this before me was right. plugged it in to new computer, then old printer and badda bang it works! simple, quick fix. so happy.

Cons: none

Pros: Don't know - doesn't work trying to connect iMac to HP LaserJet

Cons: Contacted manufacturer and they said it is compatible with windows only

Pros: Worked perfectly for an old 7 yr old laser print I had. All I had to do was connect it and Windows 7 x64 automatically recognized it and installed its own drivers directly from the web. I was ready to go in <5 min.

Cons: None

Pros: Works as expected and without any issues in Windows 7 x64 and an old HP LaserJet 5M printer.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Hint: First connect this adapter alone to your PC's USB port without connecting to your printer. Wait till your PC recognizes it and finishes installing the drivers, this is done automatically with you doing anything.
Then connect it to your printer and its drivers get to be installed automatically as well. My HP 5M printer got running in a very short time.
Highly recommended and easy to use if done as I described.

Pros: None with the solid black cable received instead of clear cable pictured.

Cons: Have used clear cable pictured with great success, but same item# cable and replacement cable sent were solid black. 1st one was intermitent from start. 2nd one only worked for 4 days without becoming problematic.

Have tested both cables on multiple working platforms.

Theese cables are currently JUNK and full of headaches.

Pros: None

Cons: Have received two cables, both have been solid black and cheaper made than clear style pictured. Have had good luck with the clear one in the past, but the solid black cables are junk.

First worked intermitately for 4-5 days. 2nd worked for 4 days and has now started working intermitately.

Pros: worked just fine when i needed to use a school printer on campus.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: the "hardest part" was making sure i had first downloaded the correct drivers to operate the printer i was hooking up to. but was able to hook up to and print from a networked printer with little issue at all.

Pros: It worked right out of the box. Do not forget to first plug in the product. Then after its configured by windows then plug in your printer...I used hp 4200 laserjet

Cons: You might have to mess with ports like using virtual usb port. I believe however it does this automatically

Other Thoughts: Very fast

Pros: smiple cable. it does what it needs to do

what else is needed.

Cons: none

Pros: Plug and Play with my Panasonic KX-P1123 dot matrix printer. Running Windows XP.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Seems to be hit or miss with people. Glad it worked for me.
