Yep, I do realise this. I have an 880 myself and use USB instead of parallel for that reason. All I meant to say (although I didn't do it very well) was that if USB provides such a problem for the original poster, parallel will get him going at least. He can then weight up the amount of time and effort required to get USB working on the Thinkpad against how much of a speed benefit he will gain out of the move.
