Having problems printing from Window Vista 32b laptop to Canon BJC80 printer, when using BAFO BF-1284 USB to Parallel printer cable.
SOURCE: slow printing
I'M USING MY BJC 80 ON A PACKARD BELL M35-U-57, VISTA HOME BASIC. CONNECTED THE PRINTER WITH A GENERIC USB-PARALELL CABLE, NO DRIVER. FIRST HAD THOSE 5 TO 7 MINUTES DELAYS FOR PRINTING. WENT TO THE PRINTERS "PROPERTIES", "ADVANCED OPTIONS" AND TICKED "PRINT DIRECTLY", IN THE "PORTS" SECTION I DISABLED "BIDERECTIONAL PORT". IT'S WORKING SWEET. NO MATTER THE QUALITY. ANY COMMENT OR SUGESTION: [email protected]
SOURCE: compatibility of parallel and usb
I have Canon LBP-800 laser printer with parallel prot and have computer with USB port.
I connect my LBP-800 printer with Parallel and USB Converter but printer is not functioning. I am using Windows XP.
Please solve the problem in details.
Thanks

To solve this problem i used VMWare with Windows XP (also Ubuntu worked fine):
1. Install LBP-800 on vistual PC use real LPT1 and virtual one.
2. Set Cannon LBP-800 share mode.
3. Setup workgroup network: my real computer and virtual.
4. Install LBP-800 on my real PC as a network printer

Yes, the Canon Bubble-Jet BJC-85 (when BJC-80 was selected there was no reaction at all), printer icon is showing with a green ready tick inside the Printers folder. It also has the virtual Microsoft XPS Document Writer next to it.
What it does is that when I try to print anything from the laptop, it keeps on printing test pages non-stop or about a quarter of page.
