Has anyone tried getting an old printer with a parallel port connector to connect with a PC that doesn't have a parallel port? Has anyone tried to use the above cable to do so?

I'm not sure if my printer drivers will be compatible with such a connection.

I am currently using that setup with an old HP LaserJet 4L and it works perfectly fine.

Any special specific drivers?

Yah, they come with the adapter. Thats why the blister pack is shaped like a CD.
