I have a laptop that does not have a parallel port. The connector on the xylotex board has pins, and I can't seem to find a cable to work with the USB. Can it even work with a USB?  |

| No, it has to use a parallel port. It may work with a PCMCIA parallel port card, but it would depend on the software, and there are no guarantees.
