Is it possible that I connect my USB printer (HP 1020) into a serial port?

Thank you
 
I have to ask why you would want to. Do you not have any usb ports or not
enough? Either way a usb 2 pci card or usb 2 hub would surely be a better
way than buying an adapter to plug into a serial port.
 
Hello
I wanted to connect it into the serial port, because I kept getting the
message "USB Device not recognized" when connecting my USB printer into the
USB ports.

But now, I found the solution. The problem was with the cable. I changed the
cable and the great problem which couldn't be solved by none of the experts
of microsoft or HP, was solved.

Thank you
