Use this

Using the giveIO driver will greatly simplify your life.
After installing giveIO from your application you can just use the standard IO calls inport and outport.

As far as i know there's no built-in library in .NET to access the parallel port
You need to use some third-party library/driver

Let's wait for other replies also
