Hi,
I want to measure the battery voltage through PC in my college project. How
can I do so. I mean the interface and programming. Everything welcome.

Hi,

You cannot do this with the parallel port alone. You need an analog to
digital converter of some kind. If you go to my homepage and click on the
PC Data Acquisition link, you will see information on how to use parallel
port A/D's along with ones that connect in other fashions to the PC.
