I've just purchased an Epson Stylus1160, & need to purchase a cable for it. However this printer has both USB & Parallel connections. I'm unsure of which to use, having always used parallel cables. Is there any specific advantage of USB over parallel? Thanks Matthew Taylor Well, Matthew, this was my first experience with USB and it couldn't be easier...plug that sucker in and go. Of course, when setting up the driver, you need to tell it to set up the USB. bob snow - Turn off HTML mail features. Keep quoted material short.
