I tried this for the first time this evening.  By including
$_ports = "range 0x378 0x37f" in my .dosemurc and by removing
the lp kernel module (/sbin/modprobe -r lp), I got the application
to recognize the dongle.

My question is, is there a better way to do this?  Alberto Vignani
mentions in http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/7677/
that he has used several dongleware programs with dosemu.
