3 Parallel Port
Use the 25-pin parallel port to connect your computer to a parallel device such as a printer, or set up a direct connec-
tion between two computers. The parallel port supports the faster EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) and ECP (Extended
Capabilities Port) specifications, which can be enabled using the BIOS Setup Utility.
4 Serial Port
The 9-pin serial port can be used to connect your computer to serial devices such as a fax/modem or a serial mouse.
This port is identified as COM1 and is 16550A compatible.
5 PS/2 Port
You can use the mini-DIN PS/2 port to connect your computer to a PS/2 device such as a PS/2 keyboard, or mouse.
6 Fax/modem RJ-11 Jack
The fax/modem can transmit data using the 56 Kbps V.90 protocol, and send and receive faxes at 14.4 Kbps. In some
countries, local regulations may not permit the use of the fax/modem designed for this system. In this case, you may
use a PCMCIA modem.
Caution Plug your modem into an analog telephone jack only. Most homes use analog lines. Do not use digital
lines, such as the PBX and ISDN systems found in many offices. Digital lines may damage your modem.
