    Hi all,

    I am looking soon to have Latitude 830 or 531 notebook, so I was trying to connect my Sharp Laser Printer AL-840 (with parallel port) to my actual notebook via USB port to see how that will works but itÂ’s not work.

    I would not like to throw my excellent printer, when I will have my new notebook (my actual notebook have a parallel port too so I can use my Sharp, but as we know all new notebook will come without any parallel port). Any idea what I could do?
