That would be the cheapest and easiest solution.  Not all USB to parallel 
converters are created equal, so you might ask Enabling Technologies if they 
have one they can recommend.  Even if they won't support this configuration 
it doesn't mean it won't work.  It should work.

The only thing I can think of is to use a USB to parallel cable on your
printer. The USB side would go in to the computer and the parallel side
would go in to your printer. At that point, you would have to set up a
generic printer in what ever translator your using. Maybe I am wrong about
some of this but, someone on the list please tell me if I have at least some
of this right.

Hi All,

I just discovered that my school district that I work for installed a new
computer for me.  The problem is, I don't have a parrallel port on the back
of my computer tower and I use the Juliet Classic braille embosser to
prepare all of our braille.  The only way to connect the braille embosser to
my computer is through the parallel cable. Can I use a parallel/USB
connector to solve this problem?  What are some other possible work arounds
for this?  Any advice is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
Bret
