Rating: - Worked fine for printer but no bi-directional support.
Worked fine for printer but no bi-directional support. Will not work for scanner or multifunction. Printer works fine and setup was easy.
Rating: - Pleased
Excellent product and keeps my 15 year old HP LaserJet functioning with USB connection and Vista.
Rating: - Works as intended.
I got this for my Netgear ReadyNAS+ to use my parallel printer with it (since it only has USB ports). It worked out of the box with nothing needed to be installed on the ReadyNAS system.
Rating: - Didn't Work
It didn't work. I had a Win XP USB PC with an IEEE 1284 compliant printer, but it did not work. Kudos to Amazon for the return policy and picking up the return shipping.
