I there any simple way to adapt a parallel port printer to a network?
I'd like to move a printer to a closet and get it out of the way.
Don't you have the SMC Barricade router like I do? It should have a LPT
port built in.
Yep. But it's croaking... reboot required more than once per day.
Just ordered a new LinkSys BEFSR81.
Might be useful if you can live with a somewhat generic
driver and your printer isn't too exotic.
I'll have to do the same thing for a little HP-5L here because the new
puter don't have no LPT port no more :-(
The big one is a Brother 7820N which dwelleth on a LAN port, Very practical.
