Win98SE does the same basic things with the parallel port that Win95 does.
It shouldn't have a problem unless the parallel ports are different between
the two computers.
Note that LPT1 can have any of 3 different addresses, depending upon the
mechanicals of the computer. In addition, there are 3 varieties of parallel
ports and more modern computers can change the format that the parallel port
runs in so you may need to get into the BIOS settings and set the parallel
port to the standard printer port style.
