I have no experience from that card myself, but 16550 is really the most
common uart for serial ports. From the Serial-HOWTO:

-8<-----------------------------------
  In general, Linux will support any serial board which uses a 8250,
  16450, 16550, 16550A, 16650, 16650V2, 16654, 16750, 16850, 16950, and
  16954.  UART.
-8<-----------------------------------

The "C" in the name 16C450 only means that the uart is built using CMOS
technology.

Maybe someone else knows something about the parallell port.
