<div dir="ltr">There are plenty of usb to parallel port. <br><br><a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=usb+to+parallel+port&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:he:official&client=firefox-a">http://www.google.com/search?q=usb+to+parallel+port&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:he:official&client=firefox-a</a><br>
<br>you can find on ebay as well. They are very cheap at ebay. <br><br><a href="http://shop.ebay.com/items/?_nkw=usb+to+parallel+port&_sacat=&_ex_kw=&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_sop=12">http://shop.ebay.com/items/?_nkw=usb+to+parallel+port&_sacat=&_ex_kw=&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_sop=12</a><br>
<br>but don't expect it to be fast. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/1/18 Udi Finkelstein <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Linux-IL@udif.com">Linux-IL@udif.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<div dir="ltr">I have an old universal programmer (i.e. for programming Flash/PLD/Microcontroller chips) that is parallel port based.<br>Since new computers with a parallel port are harder to come by (if at all), I'm looking for a solution that will let me use it with a USB connection.<br>
<br>Is there a solution that involves a USB to parallel cable, and a virtualization software that traps HW parallel port accesses and emulate them through the USB<>parallel interface?<br><br>The control program for the above programmer only runs under W2000 or DOS, but the virtualization solution can run under Linux.<br>
<br>thanks,<br>Udi<br><br></div>
