So sometime last year I built one of these controllers that let you control stepper motors via a parallel port.

They work kind of well, and all you really need is one chip, or you could just use smaller components if you really wanted to:

Hope this helps!

You could use a PICAXE, a ULN2003, and four 1k resistors... you can check out the details on page 14 of Section 3 - Interfacing Circuits manual which you can download here --> http://www.rev-ed.co.uk/docs/picaxe_manual3.pdf
