Half Pitch Centronics Micro-C Adapter Cable - 0.45M

Q: How do I get a HP Laserjet 1100 or 1100A (HP1100) working on a USB only PC/Laptop.

A: Both 2482 - USB to 36 Pin Centronics & 2487 - HP Micro C Cable are required to get your HP1100/HP1100A working under Windows XP, Vista & Windows 7.

Q: Does this also provide scanning / faxing / coping (Multi Function Printers e.g. HP1100A) capability or provide access to use with Protection Dongles.

A: No, USB to Parallel Printer Adapters only provide printer functionality and are not "True Parallel Ports" therefore only the printer functions shall work on most MFP. Please purchase a PCMCIA Parallel Adapter / A Docking Station that has True Parallel Ports and not Parallel Printer Ports.
