Parallel port?

Hi

Is it possible to use a labview to control an instrument via a parallel
port rather than a serial port?

It is possible. You should use "in port" and "out port".
Under Windows NT and Windows 2000 you need the "hwaccess.llb" (?),
search at the NI site for "hwaccess", "accessh5" and "accesshw".

Viele Gruesse!
