casing and replace the machine’s cover.

and turn the PC on.

will ask you for a driver for this device.When prompted, insert the
installation CD into your computer. After copying the necessary files
from the CD,Windows may restart your PC in order to complete the
installation of the Parallel-PCIe/LP card.Windows XP/Vista may
display a message to the effect that the drivers are not digitally
signed.This warning can be ignored.

Manager under Ports, as a listing similar to the one below.If

Release Notes:

A. Because the Parallel-PCIe/LP card uses PCIe (not ISA) I/O address

ranges,it will never be seen by your BIOS at boot-up as a standard
parallel port (occupying 0278h or 0378h) even if the address has
been changed in Windows using the above procedure. This is
normal, and does not indicate a fault in your Parallel-PCIe/LP card.

B. In standard installations of Windows 2000/XP/Vista, the I/O address

cannot be changed to a legacy address.
