Parallel port
Your server has one parallel port. This port supports three standard Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1284 modes of operation: Standard
Parallel Port (SPP), Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP), and Extended Capability Port
(ECP).
Viewing or changing the parallel-port assignments
You can use the built-in Configuration/Setup Utility program to configure the parallel
port as bidirectional; that is, so that data can be both read from and written to a
device. In bidirectional mode, the server supports the ECP and EPP modes.
To view or change the parallel-port assignment:
1. Restart the server and watch the monitor screen.
2. When the message Press F1 for Configuration/Setup appears, press F1.
Note: The Devices and I/O Ports choice appears only on the full configuration
menu. If you set two levels of passwords, you must type the
administrator password to access the full configuration menu.
3. From the main menu, select Devices and I/O Ports ; then, press Enter.
4. Select the parallel port; then, use the arrow keys to advance through the
available settings.
Note: When you configure the parallel port as bidirectional, use an IEEE
1284-compliant cable. The maximum length of the cable must not exceed
3 meters (9.8 ft).
5. Select Save Settings ; then, select Exit Setup to exit from the
Configuration/Setup Utility main menu.

Video port
Your server comes with an integrated super video graphics array (SVGA) video
controller. This controller is not removable, but you can disable it through the
Configuration/Setup Utility program or by installing a PCI video adapter.
Note: If you install a PCI video adapter, the server BIOS will automatically disable
the integrated video controller.
The following illustration shows the 15-pin analog video connector on the rear of
your server. This connector conforms to the industry standard.
