Adding a second parallel port card



I want to add a second parallel port card so I can leave both printers (a
laserjet and an inkjet) always hooked to my server up instead of juggling
them.  What kind is most likely to work with Suse 9.0?  I am assuming that 
they all use a compatible interface, but I'm concerned with how this card 
is to know that it's the second parallel port.  

Am I better off going with one that has jumbers on it, or one that's
supposed to figure these things out?

If I go with a jumpered one, what should it be set to?
