Activating relay throught printer port

RouterOS General

Let me repeat the question couse I firstly send it in scripting which I think was bad idea…

I need something simple from mikrotik, sending 0x00 or 0xff (off,on) to printer port 0x378 or whatewer values to whatever ports, so I can do a script of pinging something, and when it is dead for a while, I turn off/on some device wich is connected to relay connected to lpt port.

P.S. Does someone find this feature interesting?

Maybe you could accomplish this with the LCD package ? Just a thought.

Nope I dont believe so, how can I control Mikrotik to not sending anything to LCD and send only what I want to send??? Is LCD LPT capable also or RS232 only couse I dont have any?
