Old PC New Printer 1

[bgreen39]

I have a 14 year old PC with only COM and parallel Printer ports. (No USB ports). Is it possible to connect a new printer to this old PC? I would need a DB25 parallel printer connector to USB adapter and then a driver that would install in the old PC to run the printer.

Any help is appreciated.
