I bought this adapter to use an old Canon BJC80 printer with my old Mac Powerbook and a newer Dell Mini.
It is not a transparent printing solution by far.
On my Mac, I have to disconnect the adapter and reconnect the adapter to the USB port between each print job as it will not initialize the printer.
On my Mini, I have just given up as I cant seem to get it to print at all. Windows says the device is ready, and recognizes my printer, but all my jobs error ... Read More
Rating: - Works with Vista and HP
No problem, I plugged it in and Vista installed the drivers automatically and it all just worked, no problem. HP laptop, HP 932C printer, and Vista. Great price on this item considering I could have easily paid $45 for the equivalent at a big box store. I've been very happy with my printer and have no desire to upgrade while it's still doing a great job, so this cable made it possible to keep it with a new computer.
Rating: - TRENDnet USB cable is a must
This cable is a must if you have a Laptop that doesn't have a parallel port. Nothing to install, just plug n play!
Rating: - Works with VISTA
When I switched to VISTA, I was worried that my HP LaserJet 6p would have difficulties connecting to a USB connection as my new machine did not have any old printer cable slots. This cable worked perfectly and my VISTA computer recognized the HP 6p printer right away.

I bought 3 of these for some new Dell desktops but after hours of very poor "help" from Trendnet tech support (including 3 hangups on me) and one shorted OKI 320 power supply I finally decided to give Trendnet the boot. I bought PCI parallel cards and was up and running in minutes.
