Summary: Does not work well with Vista64
Comment: Occasionally works with my Vista 64 system / HP LaserJet 4L. After first installing, it worked as expected. But after just about every reboot, the printer fails to work. Sometimes, it will start working if you re-install, but frustratingly, not always. The problem is compounded by having multiple users on the system. It wants to install a printer device (on a new virtual USB port) for each one.
So, the upshot is, unless you never reboot your system, this is a big pain to use. It gets 1 star because it did work (and still does, sometimes) and you can't really give a 0 star review here, but really for the frustration it should get 0.

Summary: Worked for me
Comment: Worked perfectly out of the box with Vista and an old brother HL-1440 laser printer. Windows provided a printer driver automatically and I did not have to use the provided driver for the cable adapter. I suspect the trouble the one-star people are having is more of a quality control issue with the cable rather than an incompatibilty problem. Perhaps I lucked out and got a good one.

Summary: Piece of junk
Comment: I've gone through two of these, Amazon replaced the first faulty one that failed after two weeks of use, this one failed after a couple months. I don't even want to bother with trying to warranty this one, it's not worth my time. Unless you want to be without use of your printer and/or have lots of time to waste, I recommend spending a few more dollars to get a decent product that going to last.

Summary: Does not work with Window Vista
Comment: This product does not come with a driver for Windows Vista, and it does not work with Windows Vista. The company does not offer a Vista driver on its website either. Don't buy it if you use Vista!

Summary: Doesn't work with the Canon BJC-80
Comment: I tried this parallel-to-USB cable/converter with my Canon BJC-80 and, despite other claims, it doesn't work. Don't waste your money -- you get what you pay for!!!
