FilePro works great there,  but I haven't been able to use any of his HP laser printers configured in the Windows control panel.  I used the DEVICE name just like I used on his Windows box to USB.   I don't get an error message nor does it ever appear in the Printer Cue.

That works well if you use the filepro win:printer option.  However, since several versions of Parallels pressing F7 brings up a list of all the printer definition tables not the list of configured printers.  Instead, I add printers with a text editor or using the configuration editor.

With a printer called HP1200 in Windows use this line in config - printer1 : MyLaser,MyLaser,win:HP1200 

and use this line in your startup batch file: set PFPRINTER=MyLaser 

If you need more help just ask.
