Direct printer port access in Wine?

[Christopher R. Carlen]

Hi:

I have a Windoze program which uses the printer port for interfacing
(not printing).  So far, it has indicated when I run it with Wine that
the printer port is found but the attached hardware is not responding.  

I also can't print anything in Wine, but perhaps I can make some
progress with that as I have recently found some documentation on the
subject.

Can programs that access the printer port work in Wine?
