On a tp750, I have successfully used the Panasonic SCSI card with:
the panasonic CD player
a SCSI Zip unit
a toshiba 4x CD ROM
a 1.2G SCSI drive
In all cases I loaded the ASPI driver that came with the card/cd. The
zip I had to run the program that comes with it to add a drive
letter, the drive I had to run the drive driver that comes with
Adaptec's EZ-SCSI software and the Toshiba worked with both the
Panasonic CD driver and with the EZ-SCSI driver. (Apparently the
Panasonic driver is a generic auto-sensing driver)
Also, I looked up Cables America: 1-800-348-USA4.
They sell 2 adaptors, both $35. The one to use the panasonic card
with a centronics device is the Micro DB50F<-->C50M, I believe. They
will, no doubt, be happy to send you a catalog.
