HP LJ 1000 on a 3 Port (paralel) LAN Print Server

Hello,

Is it possible to connect a HP LJ 1000 to a 3 Port (paralel) LAN Print Server.
The printer comes only with a USB cable and I really need to connect it to the print server.

Thank you

PS: LJ1000 cable has a DB25M (to connect in printer's DB25F) and ends with the USB.

I was wondering if a DB25M - DB25M will work?

From your description (printer=USB, print server=paralell) I'd say definitely No. Unless, of course, the printer actually has a parallel interface, in which case you only need to find a suitable cable.

Get a 1200. It has a parallel port.
