Hi,
I know a lot of people want to use parallel port outputs as inputs; I
have the opposite dilemma.
I am working on a particular application where it would be far more
convenient to use pins 10-13 on the parallel port (normally status
bits) as outputs. Otherwise I would have to create custom cabling
which would be rather inconvenient.
Is it possible to use pins 10-13 as outputs on most PC parallel ports?
Could doing so damage the card or PC?
Thanks,
Steve Lieberman
