Many computers do not include a serial port these days, and no modern peripherals use it. If you do not know if you need one or not, you most likely don't.

How do you redirect a serial port to output out of the parallel port?
You don't. If you are wanting to plug something into the serial port, and it is the same size as the parallel port (it isn't a parallel port, it's a different plug for the serial), use an adaptor. I'm in the same problem. I have a laptop and a program that uses com1 and need to redirect serial communication (com1) to a parallel port since the laptop doesn't have a serial port. i have an adapter for parallel to serial connections but need to remap com1. your can redirect lpt1 outputs with mode lpt1=com1 but not the other way round. If the laptop has usb just grab a USB to Serial Adaptor. Am in the same boot. A Point of Sales app need to be connected via a com port for Receipt Printing... The Printer is a ESC/POS Printer but has a Parallel Connection... Works fine under Windows, but not in the POS App. What is needed is some sort of Virtual COM Port to Capture the Outputs and Redirect it the a Physical LPT Port. In doesn't sound hard, yet no ones don't it...
