I know only of EPP and ECP. The EEP must be a typo.

The technology is defined in IEEE 1284 standard for parallel ports

http://www.fapo.com/1284int.htm

SPP (Standard Parallel Port)

EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port)

ECP (Enhanced Capacity Port)

You can verify this with VERA (Virtual Entity of Relevant Acronyms)

Subject: A+ H/W question

What does EEP stand for?

question 120 (H/W exam, page 42, 220-221.pdf) asks: "Which are valid

types of parallel ports? (Choose 3) EPP, EEP, ECP, USB, Bi-directional

The answer given is EEP, ECP, bidirectional.

I tried looking this up on google, but I pulled nothing up as to what the

acronym for EEP is. I know that they do sell systems with ECP/EEP ports,

but that doesn't tell me what EEP stands for. Another site claims the

acronym for EEP is Enhanced Parallel Port, but I would think it would be

for EPP.

Also, I would think it would be EPP instead of EEP for the question

above. Wouldn't a Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) be considered as a

parallel port?

I'm just confused with this question. Thanks!
