Parallel port. The adapter card features a native PCI Express single chip design that allows you to take advantage of

full PCI Express capability, providing improved speed and reliability while reducing the load applied to the CPU by as

much as 48% over conventional serial cards which use a bridge chip design.

R2 (32 and 64-bit), Linux Kernel 2.6.11 and up, and MAC OS 10.4, this 2 Port Serial 1 Port Parallel PCI-Express

Card also features an optional low profile/half-height bracket that allows the card to be installed in virtually any

computer case, regardless of the case form factor.
