Not because it quit working, but because of all the computer advances in the computer industry. They eradicated parallel porting. So I took a chance and bought this Sabrent USB to Parallel adapter cord. I am glad I did. It works just fine on Windows 10 and 11. Others claimed that this cord was only about six inches long. Well the one I received was a full six feet long. Because of the placement on the printer in relation to the particular computer to which I have it connected, I still needed more length. No problem. I just used a USB extension cord, which is nothing more than USB Male on one end and USB female on the other. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with Windows 11 and an ancient HP printer *by D***T on February 24, 2025* The cable arrived within days of placing the order. However, I had not yet bought the computer yet, so this review got delayed. This cable allowed me to connect a 25+ year old HP 5L personal laser printer to a fairly recent Windows 11 Dell AIO with no parallel port, nor any slot with which to install one. The HP 5L is fussy about having all of the lines enabled for enhanced bidirectional parallel communications and not all USB-to-parallel cables support this. Sabrent apparently does and my ancient printer is back in action on a computer that normally couldn’t work with such an old device. Two things: First, I reused a fully enabled normal parallel cable to connect to the Sabrent USB-to-parallel port cable’s parallel port. Second, Windows 11 provided all of the required drivers for the cable and the printer. I only needed to make sure that the HP 5L was seen as a USB device during the automatic discovery and setup. I did not need a driver disc. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ >>> Worked with my Laserjet 4100 *by S***Y on February 14, 2025* I easily installed my Laserjet 4100 using the instructions provided by "dv" in these user comments. If dv's review is not one of the first reviews, then search in these reviews for "installation guide". (Amazon primarily lists reviews by recentness, and only secondarily by quality {stars}, so excellent reviews are quickly buried). dv's review is excellent, thank him with a thumbs up.> The product is just the cable in a cardboard box, no documentation.> The cable length is unspecified in the Amazon Listing, but was about 6' long, more than adequate for me.> Worked perfectly for me. My ancient Laserjet 4100 installed quickly and easily on my Windows 11 computer. Now, if I can just find another toner cartridge when this one runs out.> I received no prompt for the installation of the USB cable, and so, just skipped that step.> CAVEAT, I could only install the Postscript driver "HP LaserJet 4100 Series PS Class Driver" which works well even for non-postscript documents. However, the non-postscript "Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet 4100 series" driver "magically" showed up, but didn't work well (the printout was garbled). On my old computer, I mostly used the non-postscript driver because it was faster (and could print both PS and non-PS docs). So, since I now have to use the PS driver, printing is slower than I was accustomed to.> The one-star off is for the lack of documentation: i.e., no specification of the cable length, and no instructions.>Negative Reviews
