[TriLUG] Parallel port PCI cards

[Chris Merrill]

We have two printers (neither is USB) that both need to be
hooked up from the same server.  It only has one built-in
parallel port...and we couldn't find any connectors on the
mobo that looked like they would provide the additional
port (the manual didn't show anything either).  It's a
Dell Poweredge 300 server.

A quick google found this:

This vendor actually provides Linux installation instructions,
which was more than I had hoped for :)

Anyone have any experiences with these cards with Linux?
