[See IEEE1284] Parallel interface is a one or two-way interface that can transfer several different bits of information simultaneously. Transmission is several times faster via parallel than serial interface. Bi-directional parallel interfaces communicate in two different directions so they have the advantage of being able to let users know if some [..]

A channel capable of transferring more than one bit simultaneously. Almost all personal computers come with at least one parallel interface. The other type of interface is a serial interfaces.

a connection between two electronic devices (usually a computer and a peripheral, such as a printer or disk drive) that carries data on numerous wires running side by side. Examples of parallel interf [..]

A port that transmits a number of bits at a time by means of multiple parallel channels. A parallel interface is used to connect the printer on a PC. A parallel interface may transmit eight bits (one [..]

A parallel interface provides a connection method whereby multiple units of data can be combined into multi-bit signals and are transferred between devices through multiple data lines. The censorings [..]

A parallel interface refers to a multiline channel, each line capable of transmitting several bits of data simultaneously. Most commonly, personal computers (PCs) have at least one parallel interface [..]
