Honored ContributorHello, i need everybody helps here.....current production of LAptops does not have parallel port with it.........is there any options to use byteblaster ?
How about if i get a usb to parallel port cable....does it work? Any suggestions from you guys ? my humble thanks to you all. regards wayne
Honored ContributorI don't think I have ever heard of a USB --> Parallel adapter (sorry for the bad news). Do you have the ability to pencil in some USB blasters into your budget since you'll be able to connect them directly?
Honored ContributorI have seen some USB to parallel port adapters. I wonder if one of these would work?

I suspect that the problem is that most widgets, such as a Byteblaster, access the port diectly and so cannot be automatically re-directed throught the USB interface to a remote port. Windows can however re-direct printing to a specially written driver provided by the USB hub manufaturer.
