    I am using an Aspire One

    AOA 150-1570
    1 GB RAM 120GB Hard Drive
    Windows XP Home

    Please tell me what to do (hardware and/or software) to
    print to an old parallel dot-matrix printer directly from
    the USB port.

    Presently, I can (and do) output to a USB memory stick then print
    from another computer that has a parallel port.

    I will appreciate any advice.

    Best regards,

    betty2verne

    Thank you, melhiore.

    Does the use of thIs cable require any mods to the Aspire One (drivers, software, etc)?

    Best regards,
