looks like you'd need a db25 straight through.

A null modem cable has certain wires hard wired (typical to ground), you probably don't want that.

hey everyone

I found that I am missing a parallel port cable for between one of my mesa
5i25 and 7i77 cards

I am in new zealand and don't really want to buy a cable from america as
shipping is heaps just for a cable.  if I buy one locally what am I looking
for?

here are some options

I have heard that you can't use just any parallel port cable as some have
the wires crossed inside


correct..   because of the handshake protocol used.


Most likely you want a straight through
