    As advertised
  

*by X***O on Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2020*

I don’t know how sheerness, thickness, or warmth can describe this product XDKudos to this company and others that still allow us to use parallel ports, even on windows 10, which this is running on. One minor complaint was that one of the pins for the second parallel port connection was bent (did not affect ability) which obviously indicates it was damaged during assembly or packaging. It came with two shorter brackets as promised and a driver installation CD. As I am running windows 10, I use one for for the printer (need a male to male adapter) and one for the sentinel pro key.As for drivers, it is best to download from their official website, and extract the files and run the exe to install the drivers. Can’t believe windows still haven’t figured out how to automatically install parallel port drivers.The price tag is pretty high considering this is a decades old part, but hey, it works pretty good

    Legacy Port That Works Well, Great Option For Old-School Parallel Port Devices
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2022*

I got this for a client who has a receipt printer with a parallel port interface and they were upgrading their really old PC to a new one without a parallel port. The physical install was simple and easy. I downloaded the latest drivers and they installed with not problems either. Easy peasy.In operation this worked perfectly with the receipt printer it was bought for. I’m very pleased with the result for an economical option. I’ve used other Startech products with good luck so the brand played a role in my choice too. It did not disappoint. That’s why I’m giving this expansion card 5 stars.
