Hi!
With cdrom2ui, I ran these two commands:
CDROM2 PLAY01 F:

In both cases it responded Error reading from drive F: data area:

Only the larger CDROM2 tool supports audio commands

Parallel ports on a PC aren't much of a problem. PCI add-in cards with

Possible, but the CD-sound card cable is a basic analog cable, so it's
really hard to connect it wrong. Often you have to enable the CD input

I also use PV and quickview to watch home movies. They
work well on my desktop but not on the laptop unless Windows
is there. I'm running DOS on cf chips without Windows.
I could also could use a method to control screen resolution.
Hi!
This question interests me too, as I just bought a new HL-5470DW printer
today to replace a Canon that provided no emulation of any kind. The new
provides Epson FX, IBM Proprinter and PCL6 emulations in addition to
Brother's own language, but neither parallel port nor serial port
