Introduction

The PCI1PM Re-mappable 1 Port PCI Parallel Card adds one fully

featured I/O mapped IEEE 1284 parallel port to your system using a

PCI expansion slot.

Saving time and money in costly upgrades of legacy hardware, the

re-mappable parallel card can be installed and conﬁgured using legacy

memory ranges (278, 378, and 3BC legacy ISA addresses) under

DOS® and Windows® operating systems for compatibility with legacy

devices such as security dongles that require a speciﬁc memory I/O

range for operation.

The card also supports standard installations, with plug-and-play

WHQL certiﬁed drivers for Windows® as well as support for DOS® and

Linux®.

Installation

WARNING! PCI cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely

damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded

before opening your computer case or touching your PCI card.

StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when

installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable,

discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large

grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several

seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI card by its edges and not

the gold connectors.

DIP Switch Settings

This card supports both standard PCI Plug-and-Play mode, as well as

the legacy ISA addresses 278, 378 and 3BC. Set the switches on the

card to the desired mode, prior to installation.
