EPP
EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) is a signaling method defined in the IEEE 1284 standard for high-speed bidirectional communication between PCs and peripherals. It was specifically designed for data-intensive devices.
Think of it as a wider highway where traffic can flow in both directions at the same time, making the exchange of information much faster than on a narrow one-way street.
| Feature | Specification |
|---|---|
| Transfer Rate | Up to 2 MB/s |
| Interface | Parallel DB-25 |
Hardware-Driven Handshaking
EPP implements the handshaking protocol in hardware, which significantly reduces the CPU overhead compared to standard software-controlled parallel ports.
Key Advantages
- Higher data throughput than standard modes.
- Maintains backward compatibility with older devices.
- Low latency for peripheral devices.
IEEE 1284 was the performance bridge before USB reached the market.
