I've never had the opportunity to use this, but it looks like it might
do what you all want http://www.winfordeng.com/products/portio32/

You'll probably have to google a bit for how to get the parallel port in
the mode that you want to use.

Subject: Re: Parallel Port module

Greetings perl-win32-users,

I have gotten Scott Penrose's parallel port module to work on win32 and
can set data bits reliably. I can not figure out any way to read status
bits from the port. The documentation is virtually lacking.
Methods for set_status and get_status are referenced but there is no
information as to how to use them. I have read the source code of all of
the parallel port modules and can not find clues anywhere. Does anyone
have any information on these methods or an example of how to read the
status and control bits?
