Common Printer port settings are as follows:
LPT Port I/O Address LPT1 378 LPT2 278 LPT3 3BC
Compaq Servers have the following Parallel Port Setup:
LPT Port I/O Address LPT1 3BC LPT2 378 LPT3 278
So whenever setting up printer ports, be sure to either make the operating system use the address that the Compaq printer port is using, or change the Compaq hardware to use a different printer port (to change the addres to match your software).
