2.2.6 Serial And Parallel Port Assignments
The serial ports require eight consecutive I/O addresses for
access to the control and status registers. COM1is always
assigned to the highest /O address (when using only one
port, this may be either on 2F8h or 3F8h). If two serial ports
are installed COM2 is assigned to the next lower I/O ad-
dress (COM1 is assigned to 3F8h and COM2 is assigned to
2F8h). The table on the next page gives the three possible
configurations:

The parallel ports require three consecutive I/O addresses
for access to the control, status and data registers. LPT1 is
always assigned to the highest /O address available (when
using one parallel port, this may be on 278h, 378h or
3BCh). If two parallel ports are installed, LPT2 is assigned
to a lower V/O address. If three parallel ports are installed,
LPT3 is assigned to the lowest I/O address. The following ta-
ble gives the seven possible configurations:
