(4) 1284/USB circuit select control section
The GDI/USB PWB is connected to CN15 connector to control switch-
ing between IEEE1284 port and USB port. 
If USB cable isn’t connected to the GDI/USB PWB, the /1284-EN signal
becomes LOW to allow the user of IEEE1284 port.
If USB cable is connected, the /USB-EN signal becomes LOW to allow
the use of USB port.
Since USB has priority, when USB cable is connected, it is selected.
That is, when USB cable is connected, IEEE1284 port (parallel port) is
disabled.
