Installing the Parallel Port Adapter
This section explains how to install the Parallel Port Adapter under
different operating systems. Please locate and follow the procedure
for your computer’s operating system.
Caution! Be sure to allow
the installation process to
finish without interruption. The Parallel Port Adapter uses the Windows system-supplied parallel
drivers that enables the port to appear to Windows as a standard
LPT port.
Installing under Windows XP
Follow these steps to install the adapter under Windows XP.
Step Procedure Description
Step 1 Turn on the power to your computer
system.
This is the system in which the device is to
be installed.
Step 2 Plug the ExpressCard into an available
ExpressCard slot on the computer.
Windows tells you that it has found new
hardware and launches the Found New
Hardware Wizard.

Step Procedure Description

the necessary software.

software” prompt displays (fig.4),
followed by the “Finished installing”
prompt (fig.5).
