Ohhh, Is this the only way left for me that I'll have to go for serial interface card for my printer? It is really ridiculous that EPSON is manufacturing printer with parallel cable but having factory settings to serial, something really difficult to understand, also the ADK is coming only for serial..so we've no way !!
What do you say, will this card work for us? (I think it is working in your case !!) Also configuration of this card is again a marathon or a cake walk? Now I'm scared of this EPSON totally.. :) Thanks Branden Branden Strickland wrote: > > HAH! > > Yeah thats it. As of now, Epson ADK doesn't support parrallel.
