Run parallel printer from USB port
So, I have a very old, very reliable parallel printer (HP Laserjet 5P) that used to run off a printer server. I had some network changes that made me unable to use that anymore. I wanted to run this printer off an old iMac running Ubuntu. This machine has no parallel port. This simple cable did the job. Hooked it up, turned it on, logged onto CUPS and there the printer was. Printed both the Ubuntu test page and web pages. Seems well made but I can't speak to durability yet. Save me a lot of money either buying a new printer or a new printer server.

Not what I needed, but I knew that was a possibility.
This works great for printers and some CNC machines. However, I needed it for a GameShark v3.2 for N64 and those only work with a *very* specific USB-to-parallel cable. This was not one of those. I am leaving a good review as the cable does what it's supposed to. I unfortunately could not find it's multiplexer chip to confirm it was compatible with my use case online, so in case anyone else is looking, this is not compatible with the N64 GameShark. For that use case, my suggestion is a PCI Parallel port for desktop computers. Compatible USB adapters have become nearly impossible to find since 2010.

Didn't work for me, still looks to be of good quality
Didn't work for my application which was connecting an old CNC machine, but the product should work for most other things using this port like printers etc.

Does not work with my Minolta film scanner using TWAIN
The product description photos show that it will work with a scanner. I attached the UGREEN cable to my Windows computer, and the USB device was identified as "Prolific Technology IEEE-1284 Controller", Description: "USB Printing Support". But, the various scanner software packages I tried, which use TWAIN to recognize scanners, did not detect my Minolta F-2900 film scanner, connected via DB25. I emailed UGREEN, and they informed me that my scanner uses SCSI DB25, not parallel. So, my fault for not getting a SCSI adapter.

Great product and works great
The price for this adapter was very good. Needed it for a laptop that required a parallel port to run some older software.. It worked perfect

did not work for a MOTU Time Piece
I bought this for my music rack. I have an older MOTU timepiece that uses a serial connection. I was warned that I should only buy a certain brand for it to work but I didn't listen. The MOTU does not show up on my computer and the software does not detect the device. When I plug it into my old computer, it works so I know it's not the unit. But a better brand. The only one I read that works is the Sabrent. This one doesn't
