Guest guest Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 I recently purchased a used QX (White Box) and connected it to my laptop via a USB adapter. Has anyone had success in using a USB adapter? I've been told (by the seller) that I cannot hook up the QX this way and that is why the lights are not coming on and the unit is not functioning.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Do you have a port replicator into which your laptop fits? Is your white box attached to the back of the replicator with an ordinary computer connection cord?

The QX works perfectly after installing a PCMCIA card with a parallel port. A USB adapter did not work. Considering MOST new laptops do not have parallel ports, this is a viable alternative. http://www.transdigital.net/info.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
