Many new printers today do not have a Parallel Port, the legacy printer port. Some applications or hosts still require a parallel port for printing. The LPT2USB device is designed to interface the PC Parallel port to USB Printer Port, thereby enabling modern printers to work with the legacy applications.
Overview:
- The LPT2USB simply takes the data sent to the LPT and transfers it to the USB connected printer
- The LPT2USB works with any printer
- It does not require any specific software or driver to be installed in the PC
- Host hardware type is irrelevant as long as it supports standard parallel LPT port.
Package Content:
- DB25-LPT2USB Adapter
- PS/2 to DC power cable
- User Manual
Stromversorgung:
- via PS/2 to DC power cable
- optional: USB cable, AC to DC power supply
System Requirements:
- Any host that has a Parallel port with IEEE-1284 1994 (bi-directional parallel interface) specification compliant
- The host should be able to send data that is recognized by the printer, As an example, if the printer language is HP PCL Level 3, the application should be able to send print file which is HP PCL Level 3
Useful hints for this device:
- Since it is directly connected to the host's parallel port, its usage is very versatile
- You need an USB cable of the A-type
