Function does it 1a. , Just plug and play No installation required.
Annoying was only the lack of information about the pin assignment of the cable, since one does not further came with the listed motherboard manual pin assignment of the printer port so.
Also on the website of the manufacturer are no useful information available.
Ultimately, it was a supported by the information gathered luck deciding how to connect around the cable.
For me it was right, but I do not know if it can lead to problems with incorrect connections or non-function is invoked.
Given the very low price I admit therefore still 4 star.
