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)

· Recall the ECP uses a DMA channel. Allow setup to keep DMA3 unless you suspect a conflict with another device trying to use DMA
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.
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
