writing to parallel port

i need to be able to write to the parallel port on a desktop computer to control a stepper motor.  I need to be able to write logic high and low
at certain pins that go to a stepper motor driver.  The writing to the port needs to be done so many times, or so many steps that are entered
into the interface. Pins7 is the clock that that starts the stepper motor control in the stepper motor driver.  Also, pins 9 and 10 need
to be driven low or high to tell driver wether half or full step and counter clockwise or clockwise.

Basically i need to know how to set up my parallel port on my labtop in labView 7.1?
I want to be able to use the write to digital I/O.vi to send the proper binary or hex value of an index array  to the parallel port
to drive the motor driver.
