  I think I just tossed what you needed on the last trip to the 
dumpster..  Wasn't going to get $5 for the converter on Ebay..  I've got 
another similar port converter, but not sure where it is or that it had 
ADB on it..

  $6 or something even getting it to you, is a good chunk of a used, 
more modern, better, faster, and smaller printer.  Hard not to recommend 
moving up to one and toss the anchor, even if you won't use it very often..

  Also, sign up for Freecycle for your area on Yahoo Groups.  Old laser 
printers come up now and then, if you're near any kind of populated area 
you'll have a bit newer, already IBM one in a month or two, and for only 
the cost of picking it up..  A lot of things should hit that list after 
the Christmas flood of new items.
