In internet all codes that i found were only controlling real Parallel Port not USB to IEEE-1284. I tried using inpout.dll library (i wrote address 1 (I was searching for address in Device Manager But my USB IEEE-1284 was showing as USB Printing Support Heres ScreenShot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/tvyiilh0fhna2kh/Capture2.PNG) and value 1)

How to fix that?
