Hello EMC users,
I have difficulty when adding additional parallel ports (other than the
parallel port on mother board) and configuring them as input. When I monitor
the pins 2 to 9 they are
always off, but the pins 10 or 11 are on. I do not have this problem when I
configure the parallel port

I believe EPP is the magic acronym.
EPP mode is only for communication with external I/O hardware, like Mesa cards.
Farzin, You should check, if that add-in card supports data input on pins 2-9.
AFAIK not all do.

;Could you tell what I need to do to make pins 2 to 9 act correctly on the
additional parports too.
As suggested, it is the type of card
that matters.
I found that newer NetMOS chipped cards work, 9865 chip or newer springs to
mind .
Google the forum it is all fully discussed there.
