Connect Hardware Parallel
Connects a virtual parallel port of a powered-on virtual machine to its backing. Connecting the virtual device makes the backing accessible from the perspective of the guest operating system. For a powered-off virtual machine, the Parallel.update operation may be used to configure the virtual parallel port to start in the connected state when the virtual machine is powered on.

Disconnect Hardware Parallel
Disconnects a virtual parallel port of a powered-on virtual machine from its backing. The virtual device is still present and its backing configuration is unchanged, but from the perspective of the guest operating system, the parallel port is not connected to its backing. For a powered-off virtual machine, the Parallel.update operation may be used to configure the virtual parallel port to start in the disconnected state when the virtual machine is powered on.
