I'm also looking for 2 (or 3) 0.5m HP-IL cables.

I recently got a nice HP-IL device with everything (power supply, manual, etc.) but the IL cable...

There is an offer on a well known auction platform, but 55$ + 20% sales tax (since I'd import it in the E.U.) + 20$ shipping = 86$ is a bit too much.

Open for any reasonable offers preferably from Europe.

You can make your own: https://www.mh-aerotools.de/hp/hp-il/DIY%20HP-IL-Cable.pdf and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4285173

According to the HP-IL Specification (https://literature.hpcalc.org/community/hp82166-is-en.pdf), any cheap zip cable will do for distances up to 10m.

Thanks for the link to Thingiverse. I only found a model for the HP-IL interface socket, not the plugs that attach to the cables.

The plug models kindly provided by Martin Hepperle on his website can be found here: How to Make Your Own HP-IL Cables .
