I had a working machine with two EPSON printers, TM-T88IIIP and TM- U220BP, both parallel. The motherboard died so I replaced with a spare part. This motherboard is all PCI so I had to go get a new PCI parallel interface card since old motherboard had one ISA card. It does have one built-in port so now I have two parallel as before. The problem starts here as the new PCI card is getting CheckHealth error. I'm running OPOS 2.5 sp 9, latest from epsonexpert.com. LPT1, which is configured as the built-in port works fine with two printers. LPT2, PCI, is getting checkhealth error. I already tried two different brands on PCI card. Latest interface card seems to have SPP, BPP, ECP and EPP. I think I need to use SPP or BPP but I have no way of disabling ECP and EPP since I can't do BIOS trick. There is no configuration in device property to disable them neither. Please help. TIA.

Im not much help but I am having problems with the epson printer ihave as well. I had to put some add on cards for the serial and parrallel ports. They seemed to work fine for about 20 or so transaction then they died. So I am thinking that it might be two things. Just a thought I know its not much help
