dose dosbox emulate parallel port to the real ports on a computer? I'm asking because windows 3.1 was working on my computer and have a VERY old plotter that dose not have drivers for any windows 9x/xp but for win3.x . so in an attempt to get my hardware to work i was going find my copy of autocad 1 and dig out this plotter and see if i cant make it run.

no, dosbox doesn't port lpt. But all you need to do is plug Riva TNT or any older card to your computer, install dos, win31, and graphics drivers and you can use your ploter on your modern computer. You can also have even windows xp there.
