Hardware do lpt flashers work on usb2lpt adapters in XP ?

[mrgone]

some ppl might remember,
in the old times, flashers were connected via lpt or printer-port to a pc.
then came Windows NT and friends, which made it more difficult to connect to flashers.
some softwares had DLPORTIO.SYS to circumvent that.

my questions is: does that work also, when the lpt port is connected via a USB adapter ?

No, it requires accesses the printer port directly. USB drivers sit in the HAL and have no direct access to any hardware.
