Rerouting printer port

I am using an old PCB program that only prints to LPT printer port. I have an HP1010 laser printer that only has a USB port. Is there any way to redirect printing from this software to the USB port.
 

Re: Rerouting printer port

There are some utilities redirecting stream of data to file instead of LPT.
Possibly, you can send this file to USB.

I have redirected the output to a file. But how to send this file to USB. I can send the file to LPT1: or COM port, but how to send it to USB.
