The example configuration documentation for Writelog says nothing about
an LPT port.

There are *two* 25 pin ports - one is LPT compatible to support old
loggers and one is the ACC port that provides for other station
interfacing and automation (like a "tally" for active rig, band
data output, control of Icom compatible amplifiers, etc.) depending
on your configuration choices.  *BOTH* ports are fully documented in
the User Manual.

Coz when I download the MK2R manual I see there is wiring of a 25 pin
port... is that output or just for antennas?

Yes, if you follow the set-up provided correctly.  As others here
have said repeatedly, the example configuration works well for them.

It means that Writelog does not support LPT interface with 64 bit
versions of Windows.  MK2R+ *works just fine* with Windows 7 and
Windows 8 using the USB interface - including WriteLog.  Follow the
tested/proven configuration instructions on the web site.

Use the USB configuration as documented in the example for WriteLog and
MK2R+ found in the MK2R+ area at
