Did you get this figured out?

nope.
what i did was to turn printer around and i found this other port. i plugged one end of a usb cable into it and other end into laptop. it wouldn't work. so i shut pc down and laptop down. powered up laptop and up came a message about locating a plug and play device. i don't understand why no drivers are needed for my HP printer for laptop to work. well, it prints now. kind of caveman approach but this is the best i can do until another printer is purchased.
