Hallo,
where can I find information about the electrical interface of the parallel port?(e.g. the maximal current consumption)
Furthermore I would like to know by which devices it is controlled and where these devices are located in the architecture. Is it right that the parallel port controller is part of the chipset?
My Chipset at least is the Intel 440BX PII4e. How do I do I proceed to achieve further informations?
Thanks

Hello burg,

Welcome tohttp://www.pcguide.com/ubb/pcgubb.gif Forums!

Have you tried a Google (http://www.google.com) search for an answer to your question?

Thank you.
As I understand it what one has to know is written in the IEEE 1248. How
can one view it for free? Is that possible?
