Is the 98 box on the network? If not, can it be? Then you can just do network printing.

I am leaning to install a USB adapter that supports USB 2.0, but am concerned about tbe other devices connected to the box, already. Don't mind taking the cover off to perform some minor sugery. Just don't want to lombotomize the patient in the process.

I think your best bet (provided this is a desktop machine) is to find a USB card that has Windows 98 drivers. Next best bet would be to install a second NIC and use a crossover cable to connect to the printer (set it up for a private IP space).

But, is there a 25 pin Parallel to USB Interface Cable? I have an old PC that is running Windows 98 SE, and I need to replace the printer. It's not on the network, else I could print to the new printer via IP. Plus, management doesn't want it on the network. Anyone seen an animal like this? And if so, who carries it?
