A good price if someone needs one of these.

I have two of those cables for my M5-2 except one of them's an extra-long cable that can stretch about 10 feet.

This is a M4-1/M5-1/M5-2 cable. The M13 was only ever a fixed cable design.

Yeah I was wondering about that... never seen a separate corded M13.

Maxiswitch and lexmark had to cheapen down the costs y'know.

I don't think that's the reason. The M5-1 and the M5-2 were made by Lexmark but still used the detatchable SDL cables.

The 42H1292 was designed by Lexmark.
