One end is a mini DIN-8 and the other end is a Centronix parallel like you
find on the input to a printer (that's why it's a power PRINT cable, you
use it to convert AppleTalk to parallel on a printer).
The Mac version was the typical putty/off-white color. They were bundled
with a piece of Canadian (hooray) software called GTD Power Print.
