#185002 - Why the parallel port? Responding to: ???'s previous message |
There is no native support for doing this in Windows, and parallel ports are becoming increasingly rare anyhow.
Wouldn't it make more sense to use a serial port (either a "real" COM port, or a USB "virtual" one) and an 8051 as an external "IO controller"...? But, if you really do want to use the parallel port, there is plenty of "legacy" information readily available; eg, This recent thread: http://www.8052.com/forum/read/184872 http://www.lvr.com/parport.htm http://www.beyondlogic.org/spp/parallel.htm Google is your friend! |
