old Designjet 430 with Windows 10
How do you install windows 10 drivers for an old designjet 430 hp plotter?
It has a parallels port (LPT port), no USB.
I haven't been able to find Windows 10 drivers for it.

While I believe your creating this question and self-answered is well intentioned, unless the answer is really different than other questions about connecting an LPT printer to a USB port, this should just be closed. And honestly, even if there is some odd quirk about the DesignJet 430, your answer should just be added to the main question on this topic that already exists.

I disagree, that question specifically asks about a deskjet, is completely different hardware from a plotter. I know you are defending stack's goals, but when people search "how do I get my designjet 430 to work", the LPT port question wont show up. Second, this question is not so much about the cable as it is about how/where to procure and install drivers that aren't available from HP's website. So no, this question is not a duplicate.

STEP 1 - Buy a USB to Parallel IEEE 1284 cable.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IDU0T1Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Sabrent USB to Parallel IEEE 1284 Printer Cable Adapter (CB-CN36)
STEP 2 - Connect cable to computer and plotter, turn on plotter.
Windows should automatically install the necessary drivers for the cable.
When windows is done installing the drivers for the cable, it should appear like so:
Under device manager, the cable should appear as USB Printing Supporting.
STEP 3 - Install driver for printer.
Next, it is necessary to install the driver for the plotter
Verify cable is properly installed:
Control PanelHardware and SoundDevices and Printers
It should list the cable as USB2.0-Print
Disable driver signing in windows. Not 100% sure this step is necessary:
Open command prompt as administrator (or else it won't work) and enter.
bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks on
Restart the computer.
Download the driver. It is called
hpdj430x64glen.exe
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=47388879835287571395
Extract the driver by double clicking it.
Use the "Add a printer" button in the 'Control PanelHardware and SoundDevices and Printers' dialog window on the top left.
Chose install from disk:
STEP 4 - If the printer doesn't work, use the other USB002 (instead of USB001 virtual port). This makes a difference.
If done in this order, you should be able to print through the newly added printer.
