HP 25-pin DB-25 Male Parallel Cable

This HP data transfer cable provides a 5.91 ft connection between a host port and a peripheral using 25-pin DB-25 Male IEEE 1284 Parallel connectors on both ends. It is built for legacy parallel communication and suits users maintaining older office equipment that requires this specific interface.

Suits legacy scanner and printer connections

The cable is listed as compatible with the HP Scanjet 4400c series scanner and supports general printer devices using the same parallel port. It is not for users needing USB, network or wireless connectivity, nor for devices requiring a different connector gender or pin arrangement.

5.91 ft dual 25-pin DB-25 Male IEEE 1284 link

The single deciding specification is the 5.91 ft length with 25-pin DB-25 Male IEEE 1284 Parallel connectors at each end. Verify that both your host and peripheral present this exact port before purchasing.
