Yes, it is running @ USB 1.1 speed.
GRRRRRRRRR!
So typical. You probably wanted a cable for the printer and they promptly showed you to "the best we have" and it would be USB 2.0 (and more $$$). Thankfully they are backward compatible.
Well, not exactly. I purchased the cable online thinking it would improve my print speed. I thought that's all I had to do was to get the USB2 cable and replace the USB1. Didn't think it seemed a whole lot faster after I did that.
You can add a Firewire card OR a USB 2.0 card. Either will work. I believe your printer will only work on USB though. You could continue to use your existing USB to print with.
I'll check the box and specs, it's a brand new printer so maybe Firewire will work.
You seem to have the right attitude, be flexible. If you are exploring options, if you have an old harddrive laying around, you could buy and external chassis for it and use that. I know CompUSA and other online retailers sell the external cases.
Not even sure anymore. But if I did it would be REALLY OLD, like only a few mbs for size, no gigs and it crashed so I doubt it's any good anyway. I already thought of that. It wouldn't have usb capabilities and sure wouldn't have firewire it's that old.
Thank you, Todd!
