5.5.4.1 Parallel Interface Configuration
The parallel interface must be configured for a specific address range (LPT1, LPT2, etc.) and also
must be enabled before it can be used. Address selection, enabling, and EPP/ECP mode parameters
of the parallel interface are affected through the PnP configuration registers of the LPC47B357 I/O
controller. Address selection and enabling are automatically done by the BIOS during POST but
can also be accomplished with the Setup utility and other software. The parallel interface
configuration registers are listed in the following table:

5.5.4.2 Parallel Interface Control
The BIOS function INT 17 provides simplified control of the parallel interface. Basic functions
such as initialization, character printing, and printer status are provide by subfunctions of INT 17.
The parallel interface is controllable by software through a set of I/O mapped registers. The
number and type of registers available depends on the mode used (SPP, EPP, or ECP). Table 5-11
lists the parallel registers and associated functions based on mode.
