my new g4 ibook should arrive tomorrow (SHOULD being the operative word... fedex online says it's still sitting in anchorage, alaska  ) and it just occured to me that my loyal printer, an HP 932C, is a parallel printer. doh!
is there any way to print from a mac to a non-usb printer? the printer's in great shape and is nowhere near retirement.

That printer should also have a USB port on the back. Turn it around and check.

I've got the same printer and it does, in fact, have USB, too. I print to it just fine.
