Will it work with an HP LaserJet 4 Plus? I bought an adapter previously &amp; tried with XP &amp; did not work. Now I have Win 7. Will this one work?

I can't speak about your LaserJet, specifically, but I used the adapter successfully with two other older laser printers that have only a parallel port. When you attach the adapter and plug it in to your computer's USB port, the computer should recognize "something" is connected to the port. With Windows 7, click on "Devices and Printers" and click on "Add a Printer." Follow the prompts and you should be good to go.

It will work with HP. I have used it successfully with the dv7 and ENVY series. The problem is it requires Windows 8 to operate. Prior Versions do not have the correct drivers available. They are not available online either.

I have a HP Officejet Pro L7680 and had the same confusion. The title says that it's supported but the Amazon "Will This Work with Your Printer?" check said no. I did a bit more research and everything but the "Will This Work with Your Printer?" check indicated that it would work, so I went ahead and purchased it. Installation was a breeze and YES it does work and since the L7680 uses the same print cartridges and the L7580 I see no reason why it won't work for you.

You are correct. This accessory only works on one type of USB that is not on any HP product. Their website does not state that. I had to do many hours of research to find out and ended up with a two hundred dollar piece of crap. Sorry it happened to you.

I know it works for a win 7 32 bit on an Hp LaserJet 5. 32 bit version will have the legacy drivers to old printers that may attach using this cable.

Sorry I can't be specific to your printer. I was getting an old HP 720C to work with Windows 7 and it did fill that bill

Joni R. I have the HP 4500 all in one printer/fax/scan and I'm not savvy with technology... I can tell you this adapter was fine and worked with my 4500 all in one. hope this helps...

I have hp all in one office jet 4500 and the adapter is the original . It works perfectly. I would think it is the same in all the 4500 series. For the price it is worth trying.

Sammy, I was able to get a friend's HP with Win 7 to run her Epson using the following websites: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistahardware/thread/c016f92c-d28b-42aa-a026-04f02952e917 http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7hardware/thread/177e851a-334b-4a14-8d08-567a41b06b8a Her printer had been updated with a parallel to usb adapter. I typed the "printui /s /t2" in the "run" window....found under Programs and then Accessories. Click "Add" and start the add printer driver wizard. Select "HP" in the left pane and then "HP Laserjet III" in the right pane. When the wizard is finished, "HP Laserjet III" should appear in the printers folder. Type "printui /ip" at the "run" prompt. (I am reconstructing these directions from memory so I hope I remember them correctly". Choose "add a new printer to existing port"...I used usb. Then choose "use an existing driver on this computer" and select the HP Laserjet III. Try printing a test page. Good luck! I hope this info helps you. Please post your success. Joyce

Hi Kenny, I don't think the product would work with window 98. I am sorry to tell you that item is like a toy, very tinny and does not hold the normal paper size. I was so disappointed when i received it, so I call the seller to turn it . The company which was selling this item was not even prepared to refund the shipping fees that i incurred in buying the item as the item was sent to me without the cord that connects from the laptop to the printer, so I could not use it. They never refunded the shipping fees when I returned it because it was without some parts which is the connection cord. I just let go and decided to leave it alone. I don't recommend that you buy that product, as it is not a good product to buy. It's a waste of money to buy it. Find a better small flat normal printer to buy instead. It will be worth the money you spent on it even if it is slightly more expensive. Check HP printer model for a small type which is less costly. I hope this can help you to make a better decision. Good luck! Esther

hi brian... I never got that far. my Lexmark printer wasn't compatible w adapter USB. I bet it would work w any software if adapter USB was compatible w printer you have. I purchased a USB HP printer from Wal-Mart - cheapest they had $50. 3 in 1 - works awesome! love it! wish I could send you my adapter USB to try. it's doing me no good. but on the other hand it made me purchase a new printer that I love. :)

I don't think so. It has not worked for my Inkjet on my OptiPlex w XP nor my Acer Laptop w Win 7.Jimbo

If I am correct, this particular cable will only work on some HP printers such as HP Color Laser Jet CM2320mf MFP. Some places state that they work on all HP printers, which is actually misleading. I recommend that you do a little more research, like typing "which USB cable for HP officepro jet 8600" and see what comes up.

I do not recommend purchasing this adapter. I purchased it and it lasted one week. I have since purchased an original HP adapter brand new on EBay for 30 bucks, as I could not find the touchsmart adapter on Amazon.

I don't know about your specific printer, but my HP LaserJet 1100, approximately 25 years old works fine with the Parallel to USB adapter cable.

I don't see why it would not work. We have an HP laptop, running Win 7 and this USB adapter worked great. I also use a USB video adapter on my desktop computer where I have 3 monitors. With these USB adapters, you can add several to your computer if you'd like.
