Refer to the documentation of "devc-par". In particular, the "-p" option might be helpful:

---

-p address 

Base I/O address of the parallel port. The I/O port address may be specified in hexadecimal form (e.g. 0x140) or octal 
form (e.g. 0140) as well as in decimal. Don't use this option with the -b option. 

---

The last sentence, referring to the "-b" option, is interesting because the "-b" option is about BIOS information. I'd 
say this means that "-p" is for "without BIOS", which is what you need.
