    I must have tried at least 7 or 8 different parallel cables. While they all worked for printing, not one worked for updating firmware.

    No banana with the USB to parallel converter, either.

    You just need to bite the bullet and get the correct Nethawk cable.
    Thanks for the info you got.

      here is the new number FY9-4368-000. Dealer cost is $188 so if you have to purchase from someone else hold on to your shorts!!!!

        With the stated price given as $188, ym's suggestion of finding an old laptop, they are very easy to find, is the less costly solution. NO other USB to Parallel cable will work,,, period...
