Reviewed on 2008-05-24 Works flawlessly on Win95 Used this card on a Windows 95 machine that needed another printer installed on it. I forgot that a driver CD came with it, so I went to the company's website to download the driver. Everything installed fine the first try. The company website seemed very legit - not one of those cheap manufacturers that sells cards and offers no place for you to go when you have problems. Would highly recommend this card.

Reviewed on 2008-04-29 No problems here Some reviewers indicated a problem getting this product to work. I had no issues getting it installed and working. Just make sure you have an open PCI slot on your motherboard and that you insert the card fully and properly. I would buy this product again should the need arise.

Reviewed on 2008-04-26 Parallel Port Card Simple installation on Windows Vista machine. Took no more than 5 minutes start to finish. Great product.

Reviewed on 2008-04-05 A Parallel port in a few minutes Added this card to my Windows XP computer. Just pressed card into open slot ran driver from the included CD, and parallel output was ready in about 5 minutes. Used this to add a second printer to my computer. Grest item with excellent instructions.

Reviewed on 2008-02-16 Great little product For some God-awful reason, many PCs today come without parallel ports, and the trend towards sticking USB ports all over the place continues. This is all very interesting, and I certainly have no problem with USB, but plenty of printers only work with parallel ports. So what should we do? Simple. Drop $20 on this little device, rip open your PC and 10 minutes late you're in parallel port heaven, printing reams and reams out of sheer enjoyment.
