HI,

I face a problem with MSP 250 Champion (similar to EPSON) 80 col dot matrix matrix printer. 

This is connected to PC with a parallel to USB connector cable.
The printer does not move its head properly after printing the FIRST line of first page, it stops printing after first line, and the head keeps on jerking.

This goes on for some time.. and then it starts printing..

What could be the problem?

RajI think these drivers may work.Choose the WINDOWS you use.

Also look---->HereHi,

The printer works well with Parallel to Parallel connection
The problem happens only when Parallel --> USB converter cable is connected.  The cable is of BAFO.  XP has plug & play installation of this cable......  Some times, first page will get printed correctly... then it will start showing problems..

When unplugged from USB port of computer, but with printer's power on  -  it becomes o.k.Do you not have a parallel port? If you have one, have you TRIED it?

If not, you might still be ABLE to get a PCI parallel port. Might work better.
