Well, you should certainly try it, but don't count on it: Daniel says
that lpt returns only printer status (BTW, this means full 5 bits,
right?). What you need is to either write support for the 'byte mode'
in lpt, or utilize the nibble mode if your device supports it.
See `man ppbus` & friends, and `man lptcontrol`.
