Theoretically, yes. But, I think you have to modify the code, unless someone
has already put their driver on the CD.

I have a parallel port motion control system that runs 4 steppers from
a board. These boards can be daisy-chained on the parallel-port bus,
so you can run quite a number of them from one parallel port.
See http://pico-systems.com/univstep.html for more info.
This is now supported by the EMC BDI version 2-12.
