APPENDIX
If the DMP-90 can't be detected by DMP-90.exe while it's still turned on, it is likely that your computer is using a non-compliant Parallel Port setting. The DMP-90 requires that you have an ECP-compliant Parallel port.
Parallel ports are typically used for the connection of a printer. As a result the computer industry has a number of communication methods that have changed over the years for the Parallel port. SPP, EPP, and ECP are a number of Parallel port modes. The current ECP is required to ensure that the DMP-90 can communicate with your computer. To check if your Parallel port is set to ECP, please go to
Parallel port is set to ECP?
(1) How can I determine if my Parallel port is set to ECP?
To check if you computer's Parallel port is currently configured to ECP please follow these steps:
A)Click Start->Setting->Control Panel
(1) How can I determine if my
17
B) Double Click the System Icon in the Control Panel
C) Select the "Device Manager" Tab at the top of the System Properties Window, Click the (+) next to the line that reads "Ports (COM & LPT)
D) At this point a line should read "ECP Printer Port (LPT1)". If it does and the unit still does not function, please contact D-Link Technical Support at (949)788-0805 or ustech@dlink.com. If it does not read ECP, please go to (2) How can I set my Parallel port to ECP?
18
(2) How do I set my Parallel Port to ECP?
The DMP-90 requires your Parallel port to be set to ECP to function properly. Most computers will allow you to change this setting in the BIOS. Please note that most users are not comfortable with changing BIOS settings and D-Link does not recommend that you change your BIOS settings as it may cause your computer to stop functioning. D-Link recommends that you contact the maker of your motherboard or computer for detailed instructions on how to set your Parallel port to ECP mode.
If you are an advanced user and are comfortable with making the change, most BIOS' will have a specific line item pertaining to Parallel Port Mode. Find this line and follow the directions in your BIOS, or provided by your computer/motherboard manufacturer, to change this setting to ECP. It is normally a simple matter of toggling the Parallel Port Modes using the PgUp/PgDn keys to find the right setting. Once you have made the change, Save and Quit your BIOS set up program to reboot your computer.
Please note that once your computer reboots, Windows 95, 98, and 98SE will find the new ECP Parallel port and attempt to install the drivers. You will need to provide your Windows installation CD if prompted. Once you have completed this change, follow the directions in (1) How can I determine if my Parallel port is set to ECP? to double check your Parallel port settings.
