I'm one of those types who loves to use older technology. I've just had to replace the old beast of a desktop I bought in 2009 - it had a built-in floppy and an IDE 100MB Zip drive installed, plus a 250MB LPT Zip drive plugged into the parallel port on the motherboard. But it won't boot any more, so I finally have to graduate to something without all those legacy ports.I plugged this into a PCI-E port in the desktop, fired up the computer, and the zip drive worked the first time. Very nice. Now there is one thing I'd had to do on the old computer, which probably made it possible for this to just work on the new one (since I just brought over my hard drives). To get an LPT Zip drive to work in Ubuntu Linux, you need to add these two lines to /etc/modules:ppaimmUnfortunately the drive is very slow with this. When I had it hooked up to a computer with a built-in LPT port, it would transfer data at about 350kb/sec in EPP mode, or 120kb/sec in SPP or ECP. This seems to be running in one of the latter two because it's going about that speed, and I haven't found a way to change the mode since PCIe LPT ports don't show in the BIOS/UEFI.The driver disk does include a PCIEConfig.exe file, but it's essentially worthless - doesn't show options for LPT mode, and gives no actual data (see screenshots). At first I thought this was because I was running it in Linux via Wine, but when I booted from a live Windows disk, it looks just the same. I downloaded updated drivers from the company site, but the results are identical. Emails to the manufacturer go completely unanswered.If you're wondering, no, you probably can't get this to use a Zip drive in Windows, since Windows 7 and above don't support LPT Zip drives. You *might* be able to get it to work in a Linux virtual machine running on a modern Windows box though, but I haven't tried it.

Figured it would be plug and play but no. Instructions are clear though, to run the install program, which will install drivers. But that failed, said the INF file was not found. So I had to navigate manually to locate the INF. There is nothing for Windows 7, 8, 10, or 11. Newest listing was for Windows Server 2012, tried it. Seems to work so far. Driver is from 2014, which is OK if it works, but figured I'd go online and get a newer driver from XMEDIA for Windows 10. Their website said there are NO DOWNLOADS for this product. So better NOT lose the files that came with the card or it's worthless. How hard is it to make the driver install program work with the worlds most common OS. And how hard is it to have drivers available on the product website? Very lame.

Easy way to add a parallel (LPT1) port to a PC if you have an antique printer or other legacy hardware. Bear in mind that Windows 10 DOES NOT support "Zip" drives, so if that is your reason for wanting this, you will be disappointed. I have heard that Win XP does support Zip, so that is one option. Also Linux (I use Mint) found my zip drive immediately.

Good parallel card. Made easy installation in a desktop. Came with instructions and driver CD. So far works good and I haven't experienced any problems with the card or driver. Price was good too

really useful when connecting a legacy printer to a computer that just has usb ports.
