Parallel port connector (CN14)

Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the board to a printer. The mainboard includes an onboard parallel port, accessed through CN14, a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You need an adapter cable if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The cable has a

26-pin connector on one end and a DB-25 connector on the other.

Parallel port IRQ

The mainbaord supports one parallel port. The port is designated as LPT1 and can be disabled or changed to LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.
