parallel port address. You also have the option to disable the parallel port.
Table 5-4 Parallel Port Settings
Setting Function
3BCh (IRQ 7) Corresponds to the parallel port with
address 3BCh
378h (IRQ 7) Corresponds to the parallel port with
address 378h
278h (IRQ 5) Corresponds to the parallel port with

Disabled Disables the parallel port
To deactivate the parallel port, select the Disabled option. If you install an add-
on card that has a parallel port whose address conflicts with the parallel port
onboard, the system automatically disables the onboard functions.
Check the parallel port address on the add-on card and change the address to one
that does not conflict. The default setting is 3BCh.
