3. 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 feet).
You can add serial ports by installing a serial adapter in an
expansion slot. See the documentation that comes with the serial
adapter for information about port assignments.
The parallel port can be configured as bidirectional, that is, data can
be both read from and written to a device. In bidirectional mode,
the server supports Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) and Enhanced
Parallel Port (EPP).
To display or change the assignments for devices, or the infrared,
serial, or parallel ports:
1. Select Devices and I/O Ports.
2. Select a device or port; use the Left Arrow (
←
) and Right Arrow
(
→
) keys to advance through the settings available.
The Devices and I/O Ports choice appears only on the full
Configuration/Setup menu.

(Month/Day/Year).
Select Date and Time, then use the Left Arrow (
←
) and Right
Arrow (
