Epson EQUITY 386SX/16 PLUS - Manual (Page 49)

Setting the Built-in Interfaces
This option lets you define how the following built-in
interfaces operate:
Parallel port (LPT1, LPT2, LPT3)
Serial port (COM1 or COM2)
Hard disk drive controller (HDC)
Floppy disk drive controller (FDC).
Setting the Parallel Interface
The built-in parallel port is set to act as the primary (LPT1). If
you install an option card that provides an additional parallel
interface, you may need to select LPT2 or LPT3 for the built-
in port. Follow these guidelines:
If you are using only the built-in port, select LPT1. Also
select LPT1 if you have installed an additional port but
want to keep the built-in port the primary adapter.
If you have installed an additional port that is pre-set to
act as the primary port or one that you want to be the
primary port, select
LPT2.
For example, if you have
installed an IBM monochrome adapter/parallel interface
card, the parallel port on the card must be the primary
adapter and you need to select LPT2 for the built-in port.
If you have installed two additional parallel ports and
want them to be primary and secondary, select
LPT3.
If you have installed three additional parallel ports and
you do not want to use the built-in port, select
Disable.
Note
Be sure to set any jumpers on the card(s) to indicate how
you want the port to be recognized (LPT1, LPT2, or
LPT3).
