Quatech SPP-100 - parallel adapter

Add one reliable, high-speed, EPP parallel port for connecting printers, scanners, security dongles and other parallel devices to laptop, tablet and handheld PCs. Because many portable and handheld computers do not provide a parallel port (or if they do, the built-in port often cannot function in EPP mode), Quatech's Parallel PCMCIA Card is an ideal choice when a high speed parallel interface is required. Compatible with 3.3V and 5V systems. For example, the Quatech SPP-100 is currently being used in several portable medical applications to provide EEG and EKG tests to patients in remote areas who would otherwise need to travel hours to reach the nearest hospital. It is used as part of a real-time scoring system for stock-car racing, and as an interface for an electronic sewing machine. Of course, the most common use is to provide a high-speed printer port when one is not provided by the PC. Quatech's SPP-100 fully supports the IEEE 1284 EPP standard, and functions exactly like a computer's native parallel port. Thus, unlike the many USB-to-parallel converters on the market, Quatech's SPP-100 will work seamlessly with any hardware or software that requires either an EPP or standard parallel port. PRODUCT FEATURES: Functions like standard, built in EPP parallel port; 3.3V and 5V compatible.
