  I have used USB/D25 converters. 
  Just open file "USB0:" and write data to this file. 
 
   FILE *fp ;
   char ch='A'; 
   
    fp=fopen ("USB0:", "w") ; // open file 
    fputc(ch,fp);  // write A to USB/printer converter 
    fclose(fp);   // close file
  
  You can't use normal LPT- programs like inout32.dll. 
(http://www.lvr.com/parport.htm). 
  You must use PCCARD adapters to get real LPT-port to laptops. 
  They are not much expencive than USB/D25 adpaters.
