2 meters IEEE 1284 Bi-directional printer parallel cables/cords. DB25 Male to Centronics36 Male connectors. IEEE 1284 - 1994 compatible printer cable. Fully shielded high quality.

All printer cables these days are bi-directional. IEEE is an enhancement to bi-directional. IEEE allows simultaneous reception and sending of signal between the printer and the computer. Some newer models of printers require IEEE cables. Check out your printer manual to decide whether IEEE is required. IEEE printer cables are back-compatible and will work with any bi-directional printers. However, bi-directional cables are not good enough for printers that require IEEE cables. (032106Erin)
