Line 1: The parallel port uses a sub-d 25 connector to provide a 8-bit data bus. It is commonly used by printers. There are 3 kinds of parallel ports: Standard Parallel Port (SPP), Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) and Extended Capabilities Parallel Port (ECP). iirc they are all part of IEEE Standard 1284, or is it just the second two? ==Pin types== Most parallel ports come in either 36~~, 25~~ or 925 pin varieties. 25 ~~and 9 pins~~ being the most common. ~~''I believe that it is serial ports that come in 9 and 25 pin varieties. I'm pretty sure Parallel is only 36 and 25. Can anybody confirm this? [[User:Yayyak\|Yayyak]] 18:16, 23 March 2008 (CDT)''~~ ==Registers & Common Address==
