Overview
The UGREEN 20225 keeps an older printer with a 36-pin parallel port working with a current desktop or laptop that has no parallel port. The USB-A plug goes to the computer and the 36-pin Centronics (IEEE 1284 CN36) plug goes to the printer, with the conversion built into the 2 m grey cable. It suits billing counters, warehouses and offices that still rely on a dot matrix, label, laser or inkjet printer.
Is it right for you?
- Suits printers with a 36-pin Centronics parallel port whose maker confirms they work through a USB to parallel converter.
- Not for 25-pin DB25 parallel devices, which need a different cable.
- Not for scanners, dongles or other non-printer parallel devices.

- Data transfer up to 12 Mbps.
