Parallel port PCI drivers not installed

Postby colladon » Thu Nov 08, 2012 12:23

I have installed Windows 7 Prof. on a Scaleo Pi2510. The parallel port doesn't work, cannot print. Device Manager says "drivers not installed". Where can I find the driver -- not on Fujitsu website?

I would assume that there are no parallel port drivers available at any hardware system manufacturer in the world. These generic drivers come with the OS itself. This story might be different for vendors of specific parallel port plug-in cards, of course.

If the driver did not load, then there probably is some kind of issue with the required resources (I/O ports, interrupt, ...). You might want to try to test again after removal of any add-in card, and after setting the BIOS to its default settings.

Hope this helps...

Many thanks. I was very surprised by that a specific driver was needed. I don't think there are any add-on cards. The parallel port is on the motherboard. I will check in the BIOS and maybe re-load Windows 7.
