Not sure if the Windows 8.1 has a driver to work with this old printer . But the cable can connect to an HP laserjet 4m . it is a usb 2.0 connection
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Its USB 2, but that's as fast as the printer will go IMHO. USB 2 is faster than the Centronics interface anyway (280Mbits/sec vs. 2 Mbits/sec). I connected to a far older printer w/o issue. You might need to check and see if there is a driver under Windows 8.1. I had to use a different, but compatible driver.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This unit uses USB 2.0, and it should work with the printer provided you have a parallel port on it and the Printer driver for the brand/model of the parallel printer that is compatible with your operating system (may need to be downloaded from printer manufacturer’s website).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
