Hi Al

I have been using HP Deskjet 640C printer which has a Parallel port connectivity. Now having bought laptop I cannot use it because the laptop only has the USB output.. I would appreciate if anyone could tell me which convereter to use and also if possible an image showing what it looks like..

Thanks
