You can write device drivers by getting Microsoft's DDK (Driver Development
Kit?).  It would be a lot of work, and given that NEC has written drivers
for the CP6 and CP7, I would imagine that they could probably (if they haven't
already) write one for the CP3 by modifying existing code.  Contact NEC
before you start trying to write a driver.  They've already done most of
the work for you (if they haven't finished yet), so see how long it will
before a new driver comes out.
