Hi,
got "Parallel port complete" by Jan Axelsson but my edition is over 10 years 
now and only describes Win95 briefly. Is there any API support for using the 
parallel (printer) port on a low level, i.e. controling individual signal 
lines? I want to use it for controlling a custom designed test equipment 
hardware.

Thanks
Goran
