PCIE parallel port

My old PC with a parallel port died, as they always do. So I got a new second hand machine without a parallel port, and thought it would be easy to add a PCIE card. Naively I assumed that linux would recognise it automatically, but of course it doesn't. So digging a little in the forum I found various bits of advice, which start with running the lspci command. I did that, and the result is attached. As far as I can see there is no reference there to a parallel port. Any suggestions? (warning - I know almost nothing about linux: I only use it because I'm used to linuxcnc) 

Thanks. I've tried it in all four slots (including the graphics card slot) with no difference.
However, I see that on the board there is a sticker pointing me to a website for a driver download. There, there is a linux kernel driver, which I have downloaded. The file is called AX99100_SP_PP_SPI_Linux_Driver_v1.9.0_Source.tar
Might this be what I need? If so, what should I do with it please?

Yes, LinuxCNC does not need a Linux driver for the card,
if the card has standard parallel port hardware.
LinuxCNC just needs the cards address (which lspci should show)

Thanks - have tried that, there is no difference in the lspci output with or without the card

I did manage to extract the driver file, just in case this was the issue. What I get is a single text file which contains a c program. I have no idea what to do with this, so I'm no further forward.
Maybe the card is a dud?
