Many of the newer laptops today do not come with a standard parallel port. The Parallel PCMCIA Card allows you to add two true parallel ports to your laptop through the PCMCIA (also known as CardBus) slot.
About one in every three parallel devices don't work with this card. If you have a device that you suspect will not be compatible or have had bad luck with another parallel PCMCIA card, we suggest you try the Quatech Parallel PCMCIA Card.
This card inserts into the PCMCIA slot, and the included splitter cable plugs into the port, providing two parallel ports.
The Parallel PCMCIA Card will support hardware or software that requires either an EPP or a standard parallel port. In other words, the card will support any parallel devices which comply to the IEEE-1284 standard.
