Using USB to Parrell Cables

by shop1mickeyb . Updated 17 years, 4 months ago

I’ve just got 50 USB to Parrell cables & I’m trying to may them up with some old printers (Star LC10 Colour, Canon BJC-70) in XP. So far no luck the USB cable is recognised & installs itself & I can view it in Device Manager as “USB Printing support”. But when I try to add a printer nothing is detected so I manually assign a printer to USB001 (tried USB007 also) but after a while it comes back that whatever I send it can’t be printed. Does any one have any ideas I guess the issue is that XP recognises “USB Printing support” as a USB device but it can’t find the printer sitting at the end of it?

Regards,

Mickey.
