Apple IIc?  There aint no parallel port, I'm afraid.

There are only two connectors which are large enough that you might
confuse them for a parallel port.  The 15 pin one in the middle is a
video expansion port (has a "three circles" icon next to it), and the 19
pin one is the external floppy drive connector (probably has an icon of
a floppy drive next to it).
