Parallelkabel Sedna SE-USB-PRT

The Sedna SE-USB-PRT is a plug-and-play parallel cable with a USB A connector on one end and a Centronics 36-pin connector on the other. It enables connection of IEEE1284-compliant printers, scanners and other parallel peripherals to computers with USB ports, supporting reliable bi-directional communication and data transfer without the need for external power in bus-powered mode.

Advantages

This cable is fully compatible with USB 2.0 Full-Speed (12 Mbps) and adheres to the USB Device Class Definition for Printing Devices v1.0 and the IEEE1284-1994 parallel interface specification. It provides true bi-directional communication between PC and printer, connects directly to Centronics (36-pin) ports, and supports bus-powered operation so no external power adapter is required.

Suitable for

• Connecting legacy parallel printers to modern computers
• Connecting scanners and other IEEE1284-compliant peripherals
• Office and home environments where parallel interfaces are still used

How to use

Plug the USB A connector into an available USB port on your computer and connect the Centronics 36-pin connector to the parallel port on the printer or other IEEE1284-compliant device. The cable is plug-and-play; install any required drivers for the device if prompted by the operating system. Ensure connectors are aligned and seated firmly before sending print or transfer commands.

Recommendations

Use this cable for direct connections between a computer and IEEE1284-compliant peripherals. For best results, use with devices that support USB 2.0 Full-Speed and ensure device drivers are up to date. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and disconnect by holding the connector housing rather than the cable.
