2.9.4 Parallel Port
The system board has a stan-
dard printer port for interfacing
your PC to a parallel printer. It
supports SPP, ECP and EPP
modes. You can set the ports
mode in the Integrated Peripher-
als setup of the Award BIOS.
Connecting the Parallel Printer
Port
Attach the DB-25 printer port
cable to connector J9 on the
system board. Make sure the colored stripe on the ribbon cable
aligns with pin 1 of J9. Use a small nutdriver to mount the cable
into a DB-25 cutout in the system chassis. If your printer port cable
is attached to a card-edge bracket, connect the cable to connector
J9 on the system board and mount the card-edge bracket to the
system chassis.
