If you never find out what he is using, chances are his parallel port
interface is step and direction (or less likley step up/step down).
If you have a scope or maybe even a logic probe you could figure it
out and interace to a common L297/298 2amp driver. If he included the
source code or any sort of motor test program that makes it even
easier.
