parallel printers driving distance on 3B2s

[Stephen J. Friedl]

Netlanders,

     Has anybody had experience driving a parallel printer
any distance with a standard 3B2 PORTS card?  I know you're
not supposed to go very far but I wonder how far that is.
I am thinking about 30-40' or so and would like to know if I
am out of my mind or not.  Any experiences would be helpful.

     Please mail to me, and I'll summarize and post.

     Thanks,
     Steve
