Quick Question about USB printers

This is a discussion about Quick Question about USB printers in the Windows Hardware category; I don't have one, but am thinking of getting one. do they still have the SCSI(it looks like it's a SCSI 25 ld) interface? I ask because that's what my print server uses. otherwise, I'll need an old rig to set it up as the print server.

Yes they do still have the old syle LPT ports on them.
 
Just because you're buying a USB printer, don't expect a USB (or parallel) cable in the box. If you don't have one already, you'll need to buy one.
