What does ECP stand for in parallel ports?  I have a HP 
Deskjet 855C.  In the spec section of the book it said it supports ECP,  I
configured my bios to set LPT1: as ECP enabled.  Was that the right thing
to do?  I have not noticed any problems yet.

But It did recognize the printer as new hardware when win95 booted up, even
though it was not new.


Thanks
