line printer port
The line printer port contains the functionality of the port included in the TL16C452 but offers a hardware
programmable extended mode controlled by the printer enhancement mode (PE) terminal. This enhancement
is the addition of a direction control bit and an interrupt status bit.
register 0 line printer data register
The line printer (LPT) port is either output only or bidirectional depending on the state of the extended mode
terminal and data direction control bits.
Compatibility mode (PEMD = L)
Reads to the LPT data register and returns the last data that was written to the port. Write operations
immediately output data to PD0 – PD7.
Extended mode (PEMD = H)
Read operations return either the data last written to the LPT data register when the direction bit is cleared or
return the data that is present on PD0 – PD7 when the direction is set to read. Write operations to the LPT
data register latch data into the output register; however, they only drive the LPT port when the direction bit is
cleared.
