:: Response to article 395:
:: I have been using a C. Itoh 8510 with my PC7300 for over five
years. No problems. I use a standard, 36-pin, Amphenol,
male-both-ends, Centronics-style, cable
:: Vis. "... more common DB-25...": Everyone used 36 Amphenol
connectors for parallel, and DB-25's for serial, before IBM,
in their infinite wisdom, decided to use DB-25's for both in
the their PorkChop (PC) series of machines. How many 5 volt
parallel printers have been burned out by the +/- 12V of
RS232 since then?
