Is there a way to use my android phone as a parallel printer?
I have a Digital Alarm Communications Receiver with a parallel printer output. I would like to use my android phone or tablet as a printer to dump the DACR information to.

After reading up on what that device is, that's way beyond my scope of knowledge. You might want to contact the company and see if they know of a solution for you: https://www.dsc.com/index.php?o=contact
Re: Is there a way to use my android phone as a parallel printer?
I guess one of the questions needing to be answered - what is the output currently connected to? What is the format of the data.
Connecting the hardware is only a portion of the process. Getting the phone to recognize the data and log it to a file that can be read is an entirely different beast and likely requires a new app to be developed.
