dll to use parallel port

Hey guys, I have a dll to use parallel port with java, it works fine and don't need userport.
I have the source code of this dll, and the code in java to use.

Send me an email: fabiocmorales@gmail.com

That DLL will only work on the system that it was written for it's not fully portable like the main Java code is.
