Installation of printing support (Windows 98 only)
Windows 98 has no built-in support for USB printers. Therefore, Windows requests supplying another driver for it. The necessary driver files are located on installation diskette oder in the archive file usb2lpt.zip in folder usbprint.
Moreover, this driver supports all flavors of USB to printer adapters, and most USB printers. So you never need a driver anymore, and you may get USB printers to work not officially designed for Windows 98.
First use was part of installation described above.
To save trouble, use always the same USB socket when using the USB2LPT device. Now use your software, as you have a real parallel port.
Whether your software is already checked to run with USB2LPT, or you have to make some special precautions, please read the following web page:
