Hi.
My new laptop doesn't have 1284a port on it. No big deal until the new office HP laserjet needs connecting to (forget the LAN out of hours) via a 1284c port. Obviously I#d use an a-c cable, but....and thus back to the start i.e. no 1284a on laptop.

I have in my bag a USB to 1284b, which I use to use on the really old printer and it did a dandy job.

Is there a similar converter out there for USB to 1284c, or failing that an adapter for b-c to allow me to connect me current usb-1284b cable to it and then into the printer?

many thanks in advance

Si

P.S. I am in england in case anyone posts links to US webshops (although at a push I'd have to resort to that route)
 
Just the jobby...wonder if I can find a stockist in the UK. At least I know they exist though. Thank you very much :)
