Check the "Bi-directional Ports" in the second site (beyond logic). You need to enable bidirectional mode. But normal printers do not use them as inputs.

lpt port registers

First, your port must be configured as a bi-directional (PS/2) in BIOS setup program. Second, you must manipulate with the direction control bit (5) of control register:
0 - outputs enabled
1 - outputs disabled

Also, you may configure your port as ECP, or as ECP+EPP ( but not EPP only!).
In this case you must set an appropriate bit mask in 5,6,7 bits of ECR register (base address + 402h for standard port, may be vary for PCI LPTs).
000-SPP (standard)
001-PS/2 (bi0directional)
011-ECP
100-EPP
