Parallel printer adapter

The Syba SD-PEX10005 adds a single IEEE 1284 parallel port through a PCI Express x1 slot. It uses the MCS9901 chipset and supports data rates up to 1.5 Mbps. A low-profile bracket is included for small-form-factor cases. The card works with Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista and Server 2008 in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

Legacy peripheral connectivity

This card suits users who need to attach older printers, scanners or industrial equipment that still rely on a parallel interface. It is not for builders who require multiple parallel ports or higher throughput for modern storage or networking devices. Buyers without a free PCI Express x1 slot should look at other interface options.

Single PCIe x1 parallel port

The defining specification is the single IEEE 1284 parallel port delivered over a PCI Express x1 connection with a 1.5 Mbps transfer rate. This determines whether the adapter matches the peripheral and slot you have available.

Questions about this item

Will the 1.5 Mbps parallel port keep up with continuous printing jobs?

The card uses the MCS9901 chipset and an IEEE 1284 compatible port rated at 1.5 Mbps, which is the maximum sustained throughput for parallel printers and scanners.

Does the card run hot or draw extra power when left in a server all day?

It is a single-chip PCI Express x1 adapter with no active cooling; power draw stays within the slot specification and heat output is negligible during continuous operation.

Which operating system must already be installed for the driver to load?

Supported systems are Windows 2000, XP 32/64-bit, Server 2003 32/64-bit, Vista 32/64-bit and Server 2008 32/64-bit.
