You can an USB port or LPT port.
first of all plug in usb to parallel printer cable into the computer windows automatically installed found new hardware after that connect the cable into your printer
LPT (Line Print Terminal)
parport.sys - usually located in C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\
Yes. There are several devices that can provide a parallel port on a modern computer. They can be connected either through a USB port or through a PCI slot. When installed, they behave exactly as a real parallel port would work, and should allow you to use the printer (assuming you have drivers for it).
LPT (Line Print Terminal or Local Print Terminal) is the original, and still common, name of the parallel port interface on IBM PC-compatible computers. The LPT is now seen less and less due to the USB.
Fax it!
USB port (Universal Serial Bus) replaces the parallel port
That depends on how many are installed. One used to be standard on the motherboard. Some modern PCs have deleted that port since USB is much easier to use. If your machine has PCI or other expansion card sockets you can buy parallel port expansion cards and add several. It is also possible to add parallel ports using USB to parallel port adapters.How many do you want?
parallel port if you want to know why go to it140 if you know what that is.
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...
internal parallel port
