Hi

I have been beating my head up against my monitor for the last few days
trying to communicate with a parallel device.  Unfortunately, I have
been completely unsuccessful in my attempts.  Is anyone who has done
this willing to enlighten me?  It seems like it should be a trivial
thing, but the whole hardware abstraction thing has me a bit irritated
at this point.

Also, if there are any third party tools available to perform parallel
IO, I would appreciate any pointers to them.

Many, Many thanks,

John DeVale

For most usage, you can just use the CreateFile Win32 api and open the lpt
port directly.  Check out CreateFile in the Win32 help file.

For more info, check out my earlier post in this newsgroup.
