dma channel
Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) as designed to increase speed over EPP by using a DMA channel; therefore, when using ECP mode, you are using a DMA channel.
ECP was designed to increase speed over EPP by using a DMA channel; therefore, when using ECP mode, you are using a DMA channel.
ECP is faster (because it uses a DMA channel).
# If you are having problems with resource conflicts, you could try disabling ECP mode for the parallel port. EPP mode gives good results and does not tie up a DMA channel.
Standard parallel port (SPP), Enhanced parallel port (EPP), and Extended Capabilities port (ECP)
Standard parallel port (SPP), Enhanced parallel port (EPP), and Extended Capabilities port (ECP)
An occasion when you need to disable the ECP mode for parallel port is when resource conflicts occur. In such a case, the EPP mode is the better option.
· Recall the ECP uses a DMA channel. Allow setup to keep DMA3 unless you suspect a conflict with another device trying to use DMA
If it's not compatible with your motherboard.

Short for Extended Capabilities Port, a parallel-port standard for PCs that supports bi-directional communication between the PC and attached devices(such as a printer). ECP is about 10 times faster than the older Centronics standard.
Unidirectional mode or bidirectional mode. If using more modern standard ieee-1284, EPP or ECP Also, ECP & EPP
