I have a Dell Inspiron 4100 Notebook, with Microsoft XP SP2, and a HP
LaserJet 1200 printer.
I was told that I should not connenct my printer's parallel port to the
computer while the computer is on, and if I do I will damage my parallel port.
Rather I should shut down, then connect the printer's parallel cable, and
then start up again.
This is extremely nconvenient.
Is this really true? If yes, is it always a problem, or only with certain
computers or printers?
Please Help. Thank you!
