3.0 out of 5 stars Good card but metallic plate of the card much shorter for standard PC, September 25, 2006

This review is from: Low Profile Pci Parallel Port (Personal Computers)

I gave 3/5 and not 5/5 for this card because of the following reason:

My PC (Dell Dimension E310) didnt come with a parallel port, which I required for my parallel port printer (Xerox DocuPrint 4508) and this was the reason I bought this parallel port card.

After receiving the card, I realized that the manufacturer of the card failed to mention or is not aware that the design of the card (ie the metallic frame installed that goes at the back of the computer) is too short for a standard PC.

However, I managed to bypass this problem by carving the parallel port card outlet into the metallic plate that came with my computer and then installing the card.

The card itself works perfectly fine but as I said above to be aware of the dimensions of the metallic plate, which is required to install the card, is much shorter in length than required to be properly fitted into the back of a standard PC.
