Assignments

The printer provides a 36-pin D-shell connector inside the lower
cabinet for connection of a parallel interface cable. This 36- pin
connector requires a cable adapter to convert it to a 50-pin AMP
connector for Dataproducts compatibility. Contact the factory for the
adapter (p/n 703316-001). The following table lists the pin
assignments of the Dataproducts cable adapter.
