Most are but if they are not on the motherboard they must be programmed to be 
in EPP mode. Even some Motherboard ports (Intel D525 is an example) screw up 
the port initialization so driver code must set the port into EPP mode, even 
if the BIOS parallel port settings are for EPP mode.

Also note that the common NetMOS PCI parallel port cards (using 9805 and 9815 
chips) have a hardware bug with EPP mode so are not suitable parallel ports 
when EPP mode is required.
