I have an old printer that I recieved that has no installation CD. So I installed the right drivers and such (HP 3845) but it tells me I need to connect it to the port(it shows a pic with a cable end with those two little screws)??? but It only connects with a USB cable.

There's no other places to connect anything else to(on the printer) besides the USB and power cord...I'm lost. Any takers?

Well, the drivers on their site for your model should be the same thing as on an install cd that they'd charge you $20 for...
