Hello,
I was going through some of my old computer stuff looking to make an 
Imagewriter I cable with the intent to use Chuck's Printer Driver. I found a 
cable with the type of Din 8 port used on Macs. I took off the Db9 adapter on 
the other end and tested to see which wires went to which pin of the 8 pin. 
According to pinouts I found on the internet one of the pins that should go to 
pin 20 on the Db25 side of the cable did not have a connection on my cable. Is 
there anything I can do about this and if so how? Also, Chuck's Printer Driver 
is for serial printers that lack a Din 8 port, correct? This means it is not 
meant to connect it to a parallel cable, which is what I would prefer to do, 
however, I suppose using a purely parallel printer would require PowerPrint, am 
I right about this?
Thanks,
Josh
