If you are referring to a display like the CFAH4004, then it has two controller chips (each with its own E strobe line). Its like two 40x2 displays stacked. So you'd have to initialize both controllers, and find a way to control the second E signal. With a standard parallel port hookup, and using commercially available software, this may not be do-able.
