Am I the only person in the world using an IDS Paper Tiger printer? :-)

I'm trying to hook this up to a standard PC parallel port.  The
printer has a DB-25 connector, and the PC obviously has same.  A
straight-thru connector won't work (according to the manual), but the
manual doesn't suggest a cable, either.

Anybody have one of these working on their PC?  Care to e-mail your
pinouts and connections?

Thanks lots; Jeff
