A bit of confusion about what is Parallel Printer port 1 maybe?

The standard IO address of 3BC+ is for the parallel printer port on a
Monochrome Adapter card.  The "Printer Port" LPT1 has standard 378+ IO
address.

True, the standards for "first" printer port has 3BC+, but the standard for
LPT1 is 378+.
