Help me read the Printer Port?

A friend is trying to write some software which will detect a voltage 
applied to the printer port on a PC. (Rather like a dongle, I guess). It 
is not necessary to detect the actual voltage, a simple yes/no would 
suffice (though if it is possible to obtain a sort of A/D reading I guess 
that would be a bonus).

Time is of the essence for this, which is why he asked me to try the 'net. 
If at all possible, please E-Mail any help to me

Thanks.
