are you asking because you want to go wireless, or because you do not know how to hook up USB

Hi, I think you printer is LPT (parallel printer port) printer, old style 25pin cable is required to connect, now a days laptop dont have this port as they say it is outdated, but there is a solution to this problem. buy USB to LPT cable (Converter) , u can go an purchase this cable from any near by computer hardware shop, or you can find it on Ebay. cable is very cheap, you will get it for max US $4 or Rs. 350 (indian currency) Hitesh

If you have the printer hooked up to a desktop computer and both the desktop and laptop have Vista, you can share the printer over your wireless network with the laptop. Best of luck.

I assume you mean your printer doesn't have a usb cable? And has a parallel port plug instead, Google 'printserver' and look for the mini ones that plug into the back of the printer, these can be plugged into your laptops ethernet port.
