Post only tested and verified cards, with a closeup of the chip used.
For issues with add on cards, start a new topic.
Thank you.

I am posting each card in it's own post so we can add additional info about what mode the cards support, like OUT, IN, X, EPP, ECP, etc.

PCI-E to parallel, works out of the box, usually address is 0xd020, no complaints about "no parallel port found" from LinuxCNC 2.10.
Can be found only on HP desktop PC's, computer repair shops should have plenty, comes with the short bracket as pictured, price 10-15 Euro here.
Chip seems to be SUNIX SUN2212
It does support SPP, tristate and EPP

PCI to parallel, very old, bought online.
Works out of the box with LinuxCNC from 2.5 and above, several in use for over 10 years without issues.
Uses the MOSCHIP MCS9865 chip, comes with the short bracket.

PCI to parallel card with 2 of RS232 serial port headers.
Can be found on older HP desktops, hard to find as most have been thrown to trash, but do check local repair shops, they might still be on the shelves...
Works out of the box with LinuxCNC 2.7 and above, can do OUT and IN mode, did not test X mode yet.
Comes with the long bracket and another long bracket with two serial ports.

Can be found on the same older HP desktops as the above.
Works out of the box in same modes as the one above.
