Sorry, I guess I overlooked in the forum thread that you use the binary
version :( The host parallel port support is at the moment only
available in the CVS version (the CVS log message is at
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-11/msg00185.html).

So, if you want to use the host parallel port with qemu, you should
upgrade to the current CVS version.
Daily CVS snapshots are available at
