When I looked for bluetooth printers I appeared to have 2 main choices,
those that are multi-purpose and took up so much room on a desk and a
lovely Cannon portable one and it along with the Bluetooth dongle cost
nearly four hundred pounds!

Hi Carol
Parallel to USB converters are not that great to be honest, they certainly
didn't work when I wanted to use one on a PowerBraille display. I hope you
have more luck with your printer.
Generally speaking, all printers now seem to come with USB, and you can get
some using Bluetooth or which network. It's been a long time since I
bought
a printer, (smile).
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

Subject: [access-uk] PARALLEL TO USB CONVERTER?
Hi all,
Well, My old desktop has, at least for the moment, given up working and I
need to use my parallel printer. My laptop only has a USB option so, can I
get a converter at a reasonable price? If so, any details would be most
welcome.
In addition, if I need to go for a new printer, as I have WiFi in the
house,
should I consider a WiFi or USB connection printer? It would be good to
have details, please, of any models which you really like and are fully
useable for a totally blind person.
Thanks.
