wink wink,
Two options:
1) In the BIOS change the Parallel Port Modes. Try each one and see if any of them help:
SPP : Standard Parallel Port
EPP : Enhanced Parallel Port
ECP : Extended Capability Port
ECP + EPP : Extended Capability Port + Enhanced Parallel Port
2) Buy a Parallel Port PCI Card. (You just put it in one of your computer's empty PCI Slots and instant LPT2 Port.)
Take Care,
