Hi, i really need a back panel like this

it seems that it does have a 5 pin connector which would be perfect for my mobo layout here

but it seems that is impossible to find it on europe or aliexpress. There are a couple US sellers of this but that would cost me like 50$ bucks with international shipping and customs fees to Italy.
Even ps/2 brackets only are a pain in the *** to find in EU as a last resort. What the ...?

Having printer and ps/2 on the same panel would save me a slot which is obviously better. Not that i will need to print from this retro machine but... (btw... if it is possible somehow i have an old hp deskjet 3522 that does have LPT port, is there any universal driver that could do basic printing on windows 98SE?)

UPDATE: In the end i purchased this cable ( https://www.pccables.com/07126.html ) from pccables.com. In fact, i purchased 4 of them and i plan to sell the other 3 on europe with lower shipping costs to refund me of US international shipping costs (25$). you do what you gotta do. Still looking forward for an answer about the printer drivers though..
