[DDL-ML] Low Voltage Parallel Port



After a day searching why my S88 wouldn't function when connected to the parallelport ofmy notebook, I found out that the high levels from the parallel port (3.3V) are simply not high enough to drive the cmos 4014 in the S88.
 
Questions:
Will the alternative interface using the 74241 function reliable with 3.3V high levels? I know it should, but does anyone have experience with this?
Has someone tried to interface using optocouplers? What frequencies are used when reading the feedbackunits? Can I influence these frequencies?
 
Thanks!

ps. I hope the group doesn't  mind me using English. My writing in English is a lot better than my writing in German...
