If you are havig trouble, an X6* w/ Untrabase X6 is a good substitute.

Never, as that adapter will need to fit in a T6x Ultrabay (instead of the CD/DVD drive)

Yep. Tried it with an IOMEGA Zip drive and it worked. Seems like a real LPT port.

Then please tell me how to fit an X6x UltraBASE to a T60/T61 laptop...

Actually instead, use a regular dock, that should have a LPT port.
