ssize_t parport_write (struct parport * port, const void * buffer, size_t len);
This will write up to len bytes of buffer to the port specified, using the IEEE 1284 transfer mode most recently negotiated to (using parport_negotiate), as long as that mode supports forward transfers (host to peripheral).
It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that the first len bytes of buffer are valid.
This function returns the number of bytes transferred (if zero or positive), or else an error code.
