I ordered one for my laptop, however once it shipped, he told me it wouldn't work on a dell insperion.
Please note:
The Trans PC Card - Universal Parallel Port
for proper operation requires Notebook with fully
functional PCMCIA slot according the PCMCIA 2.1
standard with support of both voltages 3.3 and 5.0 Volt.
Therefore Dell Inspiron and some HP zd8xxx machines
which supply to the PCMCIA slot only 3.3 volts will not work properly.
Standard parallel port and parallel devices operate at 5 Volts.
All other brand machines are OK.
Oh no! We suck again!
When all is said and done, more is said than done.
