- Hello Net,
-
- I need to know how much of an extension cable can I get away with
- on a Centronics parallel printer. I'm looking towards, say, 15 feet,
- maybe 18. Would that work if it's shielded?
-
- The printer is an Epson FX85 (old), and the PC is an AT&T 6300 (even
- older :-)).
-
- Thanks,
-
- Spiros
