GOAL:
Is it possible to use more than 9 LPT ports on Windows?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows 32 Intel
Progress 9.x
FIX:
This is not possible due to Operating System limits.
The following Microsoft Knowledge Base articles mention that there is a limit of nine LPT ports in the Windows OS:
Windows 2000: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;262032
Windows 2003: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;323345
Windows for Workgroups: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;88535
I could not find specific information for Windows 95/98, Windows NT or Windows XP.
