This product will not work to connect a printer in a Windows 7 setup.

Allows me to keep my trusty, old, Canon printer with the old, deprecated, Centronics cable going a while longer. Hooked up new cable, installed drivers and worked like a charm.
Not working with Win 7

A search for use unsigned drivers did find a software application I was able to use that allowed the unsigned drivers to load and function properly even after system reboots. Had the cables performed this well prior to the hassels I went through to get them to operate they would have been rated all 5's.
