5Does the Basics WellAug 18, 2005
By M. Larson "uber-geek"
Use this card to add a parallel port to your computer. I needed this card to supplement my single parallel port and support two older printers on my home server. Hardware installation is simply inserting it into an empty PCI slot. Windows 2000 recognized the port on power-up after installation and it became immediately available; no driver installation or configuration to mess with.

2This card doesn't work with Windows 7.May 21, 2010
By A. Fix "alleydoll"
I couldn't get this to work with Windows 7. No matter what I tried it just
wouldn't work. I had to return it. Instead I am going to convert my printer
cord to a usb plug to solve the problem using the printed with Windows 7.
On Amazon it says this port card will work with Windows 7, but when the
package arrived it didn't say anything about working with Windows 7.

4A little tricky to install - seems to work greatAug 05, 2008
By Jimp "JimP"
Installed a couple of these in a pair of new Dell Vostro 200s. Running XP Pro with service pak 3 and IE 7.0. Seem to work fine with our older DOS programs that are very inflexible about where they will send output.

Installation was a little tricky. Came with an install disk marked version 6.2 but the subdirectories on the disk dont match the install book that came with the board. After a little experimentation I found the best way to install was to put in the board and attach the printer. Turn on PC and Cancel out of auto detect and go to Control Panel - Add hardware. When the install driver screen comes up, go to search specific location and tell it d:\io\pci io\whql driver for 2k_xp_2003. It will install and activate the port.

When installed it will be set to lpt3 so go to Control Panel - System, and select Hardware then Device Manager. Look down the device list for ports and double click on the PCI EPP/ECP Parallel port. On the device tab that comes up go to port settings and choose - Never use interupt, and then choose - Enable PnP detection. Set the port to LPT1 if desired.

Next go to Printers and Faxes off of the Start menu and choose add printer. Select the port you used above and then choose your printer and intall as usual.

Anyway, thats what worked for me. So far so good. Good luck.

1would not buyJul 25, 2011

There is some conflict so that with XP it reboots the computer. I switched PCI slots same results. Too much time spent trying to make it work. It is too cheap to ask for a refund so bottom line a waste of money.

5StarTech 1 port PCI Parallel Adapter CardMay 15, 2011
By vaughach
I tried a parallel to USB cord that was "guaranteed" to work with my HP 4plus printer to my new Dell Vostro. It did not, so I installed this unit and all my problems were resolved. I personally and professionally think that a parallel to parallel connection is far superior. But since the new machines do not have a parallel port it is well worth the few dollars to buy this unit. And installation was simple.
