you need 32bit windows 7
mach3 can not control the printer port if you have 64 bit windows

I'm running Mach3 on Win7 32Bit
How have you confirmed the functionality of your Parallel Port?Last edited by magicniner; 20-07-2018 at 10:01 PM.
You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D

so the original breakout board works with the old XP PC but not the new windows 7 PC
its possible the W7 PC either not configured correctly or
has a 3.3V output that is too low for the BOB
when you tried the uc100
what state was the green power LED & blue Communication LED ?
inside of a uc100
LEDs visible either side of USB connector
may be the UC100 plug in is not installed correctly ??
