This output shows the direction of the data transfer on the
parallel port bus. A low means an output/write condition and a
high means an input/read condition. This signal is normally a
low (output/write) unless PCD of the control register is set or if
an EPP read cycle is in progress.
Note 1: SPP and EPP can use 1 common register.
Note 2: nWrite is the only EPP output that can be over-ridden by SPP control port during an EPP cycle. For correct
EPP read cycles, PCD is required to be a low.
