Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack 6 ft. USB to Parallel Printer Cable. This printer cable lets you connect a printer with a traditional IEEE-1284 parallel interface to a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface. This cable is compatible with most printers that have a 36-pin socket, and fully compatible with USB host device drivers. The cable uses single chip (ASIC) USB to parallel for full speed communication. It supports both true bi-directional communication, and standard PC parallel port register based operation. It is both USB Specification Rev.

1.1compliant and IEEE-1284 1994 (bi- directional parallel interface) specification compliant. Since the cable is powered by the USB port, it has a very low power consumption.
