Well, you certainly do not understand how parallel port communication works. This problem does not exist. The OS does not send data bits for some unknown...
How the heck does the IRL520N MOSFET work? I have it on a breadboard and can't get it to switch on. According to the datasheet the Drain-to-Source breakdown...
Well, actually I do know a little bit about the parallel port and using it for communications. My latest efforts involve using it to communicate with an FPGA...
