I did that. I found the System Reference manual for the Digital 5510:
http://www4.support.compaq.com/documentation/pcdoc/pdf/5510sref.pdf
In appendix B-1 on pages 166 and 167, they have an I/O memory map.
The strange thing is that they list three LPT address spaces, while as
far as I can tell there is only a single physical parport:
LPT2 0x278 0x27A
LPT1 0x378 0x37A
LPT3 0x3BC 0x3BE
I tried all of these and both for CTR and DATA he reads back 0xff,
which I guess means that there is nothing there?

I guess I'll have to reboot then. A pity... that machine has been up
for 53 days now...:-)
