    Writing to the parallel port is as simple as:

    file_put_contents("/dev/lp0", "See that was easy.");
    

    Your real problem however sounds to be:

    Does PHP has access to the parallel ?

    Since PHP usually runs under Apache, the permissions for this device file are insufficient. On Debian systems you would add the www-data user to the lp group to make it work.
