I recently received a toshiba satellite pro 405cs laptop. It's working, including the battery, keyboard cd-rom, etc. However, there is no usb port. But there are expansion slots, 2 of them if I am not mistaken. We will be using this laptop only for MS Word docs. My problem is printing the documents. My HP printer uses the USB and there is no USB port on this laptop. I was hoping I could transfer the files to a flash/thumb drive but then again it needs a USB port.

Can anybody please help me on how I can put a USB port on this machine.

Thank you very much in advance. I appreciate any help you can provide.

thanks shard92!

will a 32-bit pcmcia card work on the toshiba satellite pro 405cs laptop? i think the pcmcia slots of the said laptop are both 16-bit.
