If Bidirectional is enabled on the Ports tab, disable it.
What is the chipset or manufacture of the USB cable. I have never tried the
laser 1100 but the problem is normally how the cable converts to centronics
36 pin. I have had good luck with the Belkin converter model F5U002 when
others did not work for some models. Contact HP and verify this device can
support the cable you have.

I bought a USB parallel converter so I can use my old (but good) laser
printer with my new computer.
I am unable to print. I went to the HP website and they said that the
VISTA
has the driver built in for this particular printer.
