I have just checked the latest dosbox 0.74 for direct port calls from QuickBasic 4.5 from XP and port H378 did not respond to the out command.

I have a cars ignition system wired to an old Toshiba Laptop 200 MMX runing QuickBasic 4.5 in win98 dos mode. Its been working since 2003 but my I am looking to upgrade to a industrial computer or newer laptop and wondered if Dosbox would support direct port calls eg OUT &H378,0 INP(&H379)
thanks

Megabuild of dosbox (google it). Dosbox itself doesn't have any lpt port support since it doesn't match dosbox gaming only goal. Megabuild does but I'm not 100% sure it would work in that way
