I've been given a Thunderscan scanner.  It must be pretty old as it's got
the dual-inline 9 pin connectors rather than the newer round things that
my Mac Plus and Imagewriter II use.  I could make good use of this thing
if I could get it to work with my Mac which I can't.  I've tried using
some round-to-dual-inline converter cables, but no go.  When I click on
the Scan button, the print head does not move.  I suspect its a cabling
problem but I don't have any docs on pin-outs.  Can someone help me out?

You'll make a bunch of first-grade kids very happy if you can help me
get this thing working!

Thanks in advance.
