Parallel Port Via Ethernet

We have a few physical machines that are still using Parallel Port dongles and want to virtualize them. Does ESX 3.5 support any type of Parallel to Ethernet solutions? We are currently using USB to Ethernet for some legacy dongles and they work fantastic with ESX 3.5.

Why should ESX not support that? The Parallel to Ethernet solution will run inside the guest OS, so the question should be: Does the guest OS that you are going to run supports the solution you choose?
