Parallel cable

The parallel port is typically used for connection to a parallel

printer. Shown below is a parallel interface cable. Since this is the

same cable that is used to connect an IBM-PC or compatible to a

printer, it will likely be available from most computer dealers off-

the-shelf. One end is a male DB-25 connector, the other end is a

36-pin Centronics-type connector to match the parallel port on

the printer.

Note: Schematic connections are shown from END VIEW.

(As viewed from the outside of the connectors.)
