communication. Full - Allows IR communication in bi-
directional mode. Half - Allows IR communication in
single direction only.
Note: This option appears only if the IR

This item lets you set the parallel port mode. The
mode options are Normal (Standard and Bidirection
Parallel Port), EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) and ECP
(Extended Parallel Port) . Normal is the IBM AT and
PS/2 compatible mode. EPP enhances the parallel
port throughput by directly writing/reading data
to/from parallel port without latch. ECP supports
DMA and RLE (Run Length Encoded) compression
and decompression. EPP1.7 and EPP1.9 are protocol
difference.
