The ICUSB1284D25 6 ft USB to DB25 Parallel Printer Adapter Cable turns an available USB port on a host PC into a DB25 Female Parallel port - allowing you to connect a DB25 printer to the computer as if the necessary parallel port was built-on. A cost-effective and reliable solution, the USB to DB25 adapter saves the expense of replacing a parallel printer for the sake of USB capability.

No LPT port
We bought these to connect a receipt printer that is parallel to a new computer without the port. While this will work with some printers it does not give you a LPT port and did not work with our receipt printers.
It is upsetting that the product page states "Add a DB25 parallel port to any PC" when this is not the case quite true.

A Big Thanks and Thumbs Up
Our office purchased two of the StarTech.com USB to DB25 Parallel Printer Adapter Cable - parallel adapter . They have a 64 bit software print driver on a CD that when used with a generic HP LJ Driver for Windows 7 64 Bit, will make legacy HP LJ 4, 5, 4000, and 5 work. The only thing the HP Drivers won't do is print in color or large format. But for every day letters, spreadsheets, and power point files, it works great.

Works great with Win 10
Bought to replace an old NetGear PS110 print server using an equally old HP LaserJet 1100 printer and worked great on Windows 10 - no need to install any drivers, was just plug and play.
