is it possible to run four printers simutaneously from one pc running windows 98 operating system and if so, how do i and what do i need to achieve this task........what hardware/cables etc......this system has two available usb ports and two available parallel ports presently available to use....thanks
 
why oh why do you need 4 printers on one PC ?
it should be possible i guess depending on the make ,model of printers ( i.e. have they got USB port?) daisy chain a couple of these and run the other 2 off LPT1 and LPT2 If in doubt get the Ball Pein Hammer out
