I installed this card on an HP Pavillion a6600f running Windows XP, and Windows was able to find the drivers for it automatically. However, my Officejet R40 printer/scanner didn't work very well with it. The printer and scanner were detected and installed by Windows but didn't work initially. I could make the printer work by changing its port to LPT3 (from DOT4), but the scanner still doesn't work. I can't even open the scanner properties.
The point is that my printer and scanner worked fine with the parallel port on my previous computer running XP, and so I believe the problem is in this pci card. If I find out otherwise, I will increase my rating.
Get more detail about PCI to Parallel 1-port Controller Card.
