5) Find some way of getting a USB to parallel adapter that works with devices other than printers.

Option 5 is the favoured one, obviously, but does such a device exist? I can't seem to find one. Know ye of such a beast?



I have two USB-->parallel adapters here (USB 1.1). Dunno how clever they are beyond mere printers, but I'll have a look a the Linux kernel drivers for them and see. I can send you the one I'm not using if it will do the job.

Mmm.. both of them claim to be "bidirectional" printer ports. Which means they have what is needed, in hardware, to do the job.

Now.. software drivers for (presumably?) Windows might be an issue (?).
