Man, I hate IBM clones! Isn't that all about port I/O-adresses; your first LPT-port must be in address 3BC (second in 378 and third in 278, if there are more than one port). In new pentium and some 486 machines the first port is 378 The former style is "PS/2"-style, if I remember right, and the latter "IBM"-style, or vice versa. =) Allthough in XT:s first port is normally 3BC, because it's located on monochrome adapter. So strange are these IBM-clones. You hate them, but you can't live without them.
