NewBee again . I pick up a Dell D620 Docking Station PR01X has a Parallel Port (It was Free). Anyone use this type of setup and will this work with Linux CNC ?

I do not have a d620, but i have plenty of e4200/e4300/e6400/e6510 with paraports on docking stations, and all do work, but the latency is bad, so i have to bump it up to 300000 for the base thread. Some have been in use for over 2 years without issues.

Thank You.
Question do you run LinuxCNC from HD or CD/DVD or Flash Drive ?
