There is no serial-style class that I know of that does not require a
add-on driver for Windows to get your device to show up as a COM-type
port, sorry.

There used to be a OPOS type serial driver that was in Windows a while
ago, that you might be able to dig up.  I think that might create a COM
port, but I'm not sure.
