You should begin by checking to see if you have a jumper or CMOS setting
to put your parallel port into EPP mode. You might just manage to burn
a CD in mode 1, but you will certainly need to force the port delay to 0
before it will work. Read the comments at the beginning of pg.c to
see how to set the port delay.
If you can get into EPP mode, you'll be able to burn at 2x speed.
Of course, you also need to get cdrecord 1.6 and the pg patch for it,
before you'll be able to do anything. When you do start experimenting,
make good use of the -dummy switch until you are sure that everything
works.
