There are two faster bidirectional modes available - the ECP (Extended Capabilities
Port) and EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) modes.
For those who don't know what mode to select but at least know that their parallel
port device supports bidirectional transfers, the BIOS offers the ECP+EPP mode. If
you select this mode, then the parallel port device will be able to use either one of
those modes. However, this should be considered as a last resort as you may be
needlessly tying up an IRQ if your device does not use ECP at all. Or the BIOS may
not select the best parallel port mode for the device. If possible, set the parallel port
to the transfer mode that best suits your parallel port device.
However, the manufacturer of your parallel port peripheral may have designated a
preferred parallel port mode for the device in question. In that case, it's best to
follow their recommendation.
