Just looked up the specs of the mobo and according to them it has a LPT header so all you should need is a cable like this

Check that it is enabled in the BIOS and set to EPP. In device manager you will be able to see the address it is so you can set that in Mach. It will almost certainly be 0378 as that is the default for an onboard port.
