Parallel Cable
The parallel port is used for additional digital I/O or for printing.
A standard parallel print cable is used with a simple ASCII 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.)
