will this cable connect hp laserjet 5mpto windows 8

I cannot answer this because none of my computers have windows 8, most of mine are in windows 7 and once the port that was being used is closed down (pulling the cable out of the port) for any reason the port cannot be reopened. OS not recognizing the cable that is being used and now denies and further useage of that port with that cable.(this is basically what I remember from the IO tech assistant's conversation)

Note that this a serial cable; printers usually have parallel ports, including the HP LaserJet 2100TN. Thus, this will not work. Search for 'parallel port to usb cable' instead.

I can't speak about your LaserJet, specifically, but I used the adapter successfully with two other older laser printers that have only a parallel port. When you attach the adapter and plug it in to your computer's USB port, the computer should recognize "something" is connected to the port. With Windows 7, click on "Devices and Printers" and click on "Add a Printer." Follow the prompts and you should be good to go.

Hello Brian,I am not sure. I bought it to interface my old HP1100 printer to a new computer with only USB ports and Windows 7. I had to find a printer drive for Windows 7 but other than that no issue. Since Amazon has a good return policy i would suggest giving it a try.

I do not know. I used a Windows based OS and I only used it to hook up my printer to my router.

Yes....windows 8 drivers must be downloaded from http:solutions.brother.com as it is not on the install disc that ships with the printer

I am running a HP LaserJet 4 with a Dell running Windows 7 Pro. It works very well for me.

I'm not sure I'm using HP with Windows 8 and USB3. Sorry I couldn't help you very much.

If your printer is USB compatible it should work fine. It looks like a standard USB 3.0 cable. - Best wishes!

I don't know about your specific printer, but my HP LaserJet 1100, approximately 25 years old works fine with the Parallel to USB adapter cable.

My printer is HP laser Jet 3052. You should check with manufacture or your printer's manual.

I just got a new computer with windows 8 and the printer worked without installing any drivers. I only used the printing function so am not sure if everything else would work or not.

I had it hooked up to an older HP laser and it worked perfect, I would think if you have the right connectors on each machine, it should work if you have the drivers for your printer.
