I have an old Canon bjc-240 and a laptop. I bought a new cable to go from parallel to USB and when I plug it in it installs itself, but doesn't work properly. I uninstalled it and its driver twice, and reinstalled (once plug n play, and once manually). It always says its connected to USB001 virtual printer port. we don't have windows office. We're running xp and write in wordpad. I'm trying to print and I only get the first few lines of the page, and then it pushes the paper out and goes for a new one. The second "page" is not a continuation. It picks up further down the document. Is this a spooler problem? We're thinking that the USB is sending info faster than the printer can manage it. We do have the latest driver for our printer. Any help would be much appreciated.Thanks Hi. I have an old Canon bjc-240 and a laptop.

Easy to follow instructions. Did not print at first just a note on this part: 'If the printer still won’t print, check to ensure you have specified the virtual printer port for USB as the printer port' when i checked the virtual printer port it was already occupied so could not apply, i clicked on the empty vertual priter port above . clicked apply and the test page then printed. The cable came with a driver. Thanks for your help Brlliant. Easy to follow instructions. Did not print at first just a note on this part:
