USB to Parallel Driver Problem Wish u all a very Happy New Year!!!!!! I purchased a USB to Parallel port cable ( it supports ieee1284 standard).This cable is Plug and play cable. It will successfully install as USB Printing Support at the Device Manager in Windows 7. Is there a way or Driver to install this as a Parallel port in the Computer with Linux enviorenment?
This is because i need to use this cable for a JTAG programmer. I dont have a parallel port on my laptop.If i will be able to install USB to Parallel Cable(which support ieee1284) as a true parallel port the JTAG software will support the JTAG Programmer.
USB Parallel Printer Adapter 6. Driver Installation: Step 1 Your PC system will show “USB Parallel Adapter”. Search for the USB Parallel Adapter driver on the CD-ROM and copy all files to the PC hard disk. Step 4 Windows will show the device name.

Thanks for the Nice reply. I have tried the first link u provided above.but i failed to install my cable with that software.That was the only software i found for this purpose.But the problem was i cannot install the above given driver because my cable is automatically installed as a USB printer suppport device.but i want to install that like a true parallel port device under Ports in device manager in Windows enviorenment.But i failed to find a solution under windows. Following link specify there is a problem of mapping USB to a True LPT port. So i guessed that i can find a solution with linux. Thats why still im trying this.
The Second link u sent me was notworking. Any way thank you very much for the kindness u have payed for my question.Its very big for me.if u can send me an alternative link for the second link you provided.Thank you verymuch and have a nice time!!!!!
