What is a Parallel Printer?

A parallel printer is a type of printer that connects using a parallel port. A common feature in older computers and legacy systems, the use of parallel ports has declined over the years in favour of more modern connection types including USB, ethernet, and wireless connectivity.

Utilising a 25-pin design, parallel connections allowed for faster transfer times when compared to their serial port predecessors, parallel connections work by transmitting data packages simultaneously via the multiple wires located in the parallel port.

In today’s modern workplaces, parallel printers predominantly include dot-matrix printers which do not require the fast transfer speeds of other print technologies.

What are the Benefits of Parallel Printers?

Although a legacy connection type, parallel port printers are still widely used and offer a range of unique benefits.

Providing high quality printing for older computers and legacy systems, parallel printers offer extensive compatibility for systems that may not feature other forms of connectivity, eliminating the need for additional adapter hardware.

Additionally, parallel port printers have proven themselves as a reliable and easily integrated technology ensuring simple connection and setup with older computer hardware.
