Specifying I/O device configuration settings
The system communicates with external devices (such as printers) through Input/Output
ports (I/O ports). You can configure the settings of these ports. For example, you can
specify the I/O address or the interrupt line to be used by the I/O port.
These settings are often configured automatically by the BIOS or the operating system.
Sometimes, however, you must set them up manually. This is often because a device is
not ‘plug and play’.
To specify I/O device configuration settings, highlight
I/O Device Configuration

Advanced

Enter
