Parallel Port in WinXP

Microsoft Windows XP doesn’t let user–mode access to the ports of the computer for security reasons. However, you can use the program userport.exe if you really need to access the ports of your computer.

Download the file userport.zip below. Once the download finishes, unzip the files and you are ready to access any port of your computer.

In particular, a manual for the activation of parallel port is provided below. You can download this manual using the link ParallelActivation.pdf below. Follow the steps in the manual to run userport.exe efficiently.
