That's one very good reason why we recommend the Maplin one. Do
drivers needed.

Interesting I use one such cable but I have not required any
additional software to be installed.

I'm a little late coming in on this thread.
I expected a discussion of usb to parallel converters or adapters but
what is being discussed are llaser, wwifi and ink jet printers.
I don't know if this ever was the question that started this thread
but my husband and i use a legacy Epson 24-dot matrix printer with a
usb to parallel printer cable on a laptop that no longer comes with a
parallel printer port.The cable comes with driver software that
emulates a parallel port. This works fine and we hope to get another
20 years out of our matrix printer. these are build like tanks and
superior in the cost per page price for printing.
