Setting Mach 3 Port to PCI parallel port address

Guys,
Newby here, I'm unable to communicate to my Router due to a port address problem with Mach 3.
I have a four year old Dell desktop that did not have a Parallel port in it, and so I have installed a manhattan PCI parallel port and installed the software.
This port does not allow re mapping to a legacy port.
Indeed i have tried two other cards, a Sunix and another unbranded both of which state in their manual that they cannot be remapped to legacy ports under windows XP
Mach 3 wants the legacy address of Ox378, but allows a one line modification.
The properties \resources\ of my PCI LPT1 card show
i/o range DCE8-DCEF
i/o range DCFO-DCF7
Memory Range DFAEEEOOO-DFAEEFFF
Memory Range DFAEEFOOO- DFAEFFFF
What do I put in the one line to replace Ox378 in Mach 3 Pins and Ports?
Also, no matter what i type, it always ends up prefixed Ox.
Confused and frustrated
Please help
