There are many parallel port add-on cards available on the market. Ask your local computer dealer for a "PCI parallel port add-on card". This card slots into an empty PCI slot in your computer. Regards, Graemevm

Hi lesstravelro...
No, the printer does not connect to the ethernet port.
Before you hook your printer to your laptop besure to run any softwear that came with the printer.
I would also recommend that you go to the Manufacturer's website for updated drivers for your printer.
Your printer will have a printer port or usb port on the side/back of the printer to plug the printer cable into the printer.
You will plug the other end of the printer cable into a usb port on your laptop.
Please take time to rate me thumbs up

depends. these machines did not come standard with print option. do you have that option? if so does it have a parrell or nic? the nic is the new stanard connection, ethernet j45 connector. are you printing mac? if so you have to have the post script ooption in addtion to the nic and print card.
Purchase a PCMCIA parallel port card. That's a PC Card parallel port adapter. It provides a native parallel port to laptops that do not have one built in. Works perfectly in ALL cases, even with the scanner cartridge.
I had the same with XP .... I had my home inkjet (Parallel port) on LPT1. The Epson TM software and printer worked fine after removing the ink jet from LPT1 and re-installing the TM driver.
