Yes, by setting up a rc.local file I was able to get the card working  
by loading and unloading parport on startup.

To summarize the process.

Follow the directions in this pdf: 
http://www.thecooltool.com/files/dateien_578.pdf
But instead of part B, follow the instructions on the Ubuntu site to  
create a rc.local file:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RcLocalHowto
The contents of the 'local' file should read:
----------------------------
#!/bin/sh
sudo modprobe parport_pc
sudo modprobe parport_cs
sudo rmmod ppdev
sudo rmmod lp
sudo rmmod parport_cs
sudo rmmod parport_pc
----------------------------

You should then be able to restart and hopefully all is working well.

Thanks for the help everyone.
