Any ideas on the best way to hook up an HP 2100M printer to a PowerBook via USB?

The driver software that comes with the Belkin USB to Parallel converter is a little flakey... any better solutions? Are USB to serial better or is any having better luck with different driver software?

Thanks,

You could try to find an appletalk-to-ethernet box on ebay or something and hook it up that way. We have one of these at work hooked up to a Dayna box, and it appears on our network just like any other networked printer.
