Re: HP Laserjet pronter question
I take it your printer has only a parallel port and your computer doesn't have one.
In this case, you can get an adapter cable. I'm pretty sure you would need something like this:
Amazon.com: Sabrent SBT-UPPC USB to Parallel 6-Foot Printer Cable: Electronics
.
Please wait for someone else to say for 100% that I am correct. I am 99% sure on this one.
Regards,
Adam

Re: HP Laserjet pronter question
You can get this cable, it connects directly to the Parallel port on the printer yet it is USB on the opposite end, allowing this printer to be directly USB:
Newegg.com - SABRENT 5ft. USB to Parallel ( Printer IEEE 1284 ) Cable Model SBT-UPPC - Retail
