How may I write data to the LPT Port?

I know how to write to a COM Port and thought of using this technique to write to the LPT.

I Can Create a File on LPT1 an get some Handle returned - but when I try to Write data (using WriteFile() ) the System does not return from the call (and I can not see that any Data was Written).

What am I doing wrong?

regards,
Chris
