The parallel port supports these printing modes:

Standard (for all versions): FastPort relies on the Busy signal to determine when the port can receive a byte. This is the recommended mode when Fast-DMA is not selected.

Fast-DMA(for MIL-3100, MIL-3100CX, and MIL-3500), Fifo-ACK(for MIL-3200 and MIL-3400): This enables the DMA chip to drive the parallel port. This works for printers that support ACK signals only. Depending on the printer’s speed, this mode can more than double the throughput of FastPort.

AutoStrobe: This enables a hardware timer to generate the strobe pulse on the parallel port. Since Fast-DMA is tied to ACK, this can be used by printers that support the Busy signal. This mode is slower than Fast-DMA, but is faster than Standard mode or Use-ACK mode.

Disabled: This mode is reserved.

Use-ACK: This makes FastPort check both the Busy and ACK signals on the parallel port when sending bytes. This is slower than Standard because of the extra checks.
