We will be designing a product with a Centronics Parallel
port on it.  I have a few questions regarding what exactly
a Centronics Parallel port is:

     1.  Is there a standard (such as EIA-232 for RS-232)?
         If so, what is it and how do I get it?
     2.  Or, is it a de facto industry standard?  If so, where
         do I find a definitive definition of pinout and
         signal timing?

Please E-mail responses and I will post a synopsis.  Thank you
in advance,
					Pat
