Question and Answer Database FAQ: Why do I have problems reading from the Parallel Port? Category: Windows API Platform: All Product: All, Question: Why do I have problems reading from the parallel port? Answer: The Windows API function ReadFile() does not work on the parallel port because the Windows driver does not implement reading ability. To read from the parallel port you will have to get a different parallel port driver from the one that ships with windows. 6/16/99 3:14:32 PM
