I have a quention on parallel port.

I will be thank full to you, if you reply to my mail.


My question is,

It is possible to determine the address in the data lines(D0-D7)

of our parallel port(D-25,female), which is connected to our PC?

Is there any controle word, so that i can get the address in data lines(D0-D7)?

It is necessary to enable any options in  BIOS, to receive the address in the

parallel port?

How can i connect the number of terminal to my parallel port? and  How can

i determine(get) the address in parallel port, when a perticular  terminals is

enabled?

If i use socket programming exactly how can i determine(get) the address of

diffrent ports in my parallel port ?


It is necessary that, i should decode or encode the obtained informations(data)

when i connect the barcode reader to parallel port?


Where can i find the realated documents for this?

I kindly requesting   to provide a good soultion for this by giving the some

sample program in C(Turbo c) and Java.
