EPP Parallel PCMCIA Card:
SPP-100
- EPP, Unidirectional, or Bidirectional modes
|
Many portable and handheld computers do not provide a parallel port. When they do, the built-in port
often cannot function in EPP mode. Quatech’s SPP-100 is an ideal choice in these situations when a high
speed parallel interface is required.
For example, the 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.
