This field allows you to configure the Notebook' s parallel port
transmission mode. The following options are available:
•
Output Only
•
Bi-directional (default value)
•
ECP
•
EPP
Output Only mode allows data output but no data input. However,
EPP and ECP are Bi-directional modes, allowing both data input and
output. The EPP and ECP modes are only supported with EPP and
ECP aware peripherals.
With the ECP mode, the port is software and hardware compatible
with existing parallel ports so that it may be used as a standard printer
mode if ECP is not required.
