Hi All,
I'm after a PCI card (for a PC) that has a parallel port on it to give the PC a second printer port.
I know such a thing exists as I've found a few on the 'net but only in the USA.
Can anybody find me one from a UK source that I can order over the 'net ? I've drawn blanks.
If relevent it is going on a Windows 98 and Widnows ME (dual boot) system.
Cheers
Ian

I bought mine a couple of years ago in one of my least favorite shops in the world - PC World. About £18. Works a treat - have a laser printer on LPT1: and a colour inkjet on the (new) LPT2:

Doh !!
Didn't think of PC World etc, didn't think they would do them. However, Maplins is a good call, I'll check with them.
Afraid it has to be PCI, no ISA slots on this machine (very new).
