The Serial connections send 1 bit at a time. Parallel transmits 8 or more at a time.

The main difference between a serial port and a parallel port is that a serial port transmits data one bit after another, while a parallel port transmits all 8 bits of a byte in parallel. Thus a parallel port transmits data much faster than a serial port.
