This issue of printer ports no longer working as cw interface ports has been
reported on the Writelog reflector.
The fix is a 3rd party driver that allows programs to utilize the printer
port as they did in win9x.

As I only use com ports for my interfaces I never dloaded it or saved it.
But you can find the location if you peruse the Writelog archives.

As for what we are going to do in the future? I think it's in the
manufacturers court to adapt their equipment to the new technology of USB or
Firewire.
Even new machines are now sold with only 1 serial port. ISA slots are almost
impossible to find in any modern motherboard.

Like the dinosaurs....adapt or die.
