Title QNX4 Parallel Port support.
Ref. No. QNX.000009511
Category(ies) Utilities, Character I/O
Issue Does QNX4 support the Enhanced Parallel Port(EPP) or the Extended Capabilities Port(ECP)?

Has anyone written a driver for PC to PC communication using the parallel port and the ECP protocol?
Solution No, there is no support for these standards with the native QNX Dev.par parallel port driver. 

The source and libraries to build Dev.par are available in the Contributed Software section of our website in the qnx4/os/samples/Dev_drivers directory.  The file is called 'Dev.par.tgz'.
There may be a solution in our Partners section of our website at http://www.qnx.com/partners/index.html
