    An IEEE 1284 36-pin female on a circuit board. In the 1970s, Centronics developed the now-familiar printer parallel port that soon became a de facto standard.Centronics had introduced the first successful low-cost seven-wire print head [citation needed], which used a series of solenoids to pull the individual metal pins to strike a ribbon and the paper.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_ribbon_connector

    This size, with 36 pins and bail locks, is also known as a Centronics connector because of its introduction by Centronics for use with the parallel port of printers, and is standardized as IEEE 1284 type B. Other connectors of this size are also called Centronics connectors. The smaller size has 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI_connector

    A stack of external SCSI devices displaying various SCSI connectors. Parallel SCSI (SCSI Parallel Interface SPI) allows for attachment of up to 8 devices (8-bit Narrow SCSI) or 16 devices (16-bit Wide SCSI) to the SCSI bus. The SCSI Host controller takes up one slot on the SCSI bus, which limits the number of devices allowed on the bus to 7 or ...

    For example, on the original IBM PC, a male D-sub was an RS-232-C DTE port (with a non-standard current loop interface on reserved pins), but the female D-sub connector on the same PC model was used for the parallel "Centronics" printer port. Some personal computers put non-standard voltages or signals on some pins of their serial ports.
