36-pin Centronics connector,
plus eyelet ground, on one end and a female card-edge connector on the
other. The shrouds are steel, squared, and embossed "TANDY" on both
ends. While I've never seen one, I'm guessing it's a Tandy printer
cable.
That is what was used on the TRS-80 model 1, 3, 4?
If I remember correctly (it's been about 20 years), it was part number
26-1401? Model 2 and 100 used a dual row header, and of course,
the PC clones used
an "RS-232 connector" :-)
Right, the model 2 typically used a ribbon cable with IDC connectors. I
have one of these with its DWP printer out in storage :)
