Seth,
	I was never told not to, so I just went right out and bought the
old IBM compatible printer cable, and it has worked flawlessly for about
2 years. I think that who ever was talking about printer cables meant the
A1000, which had a gender disrepency with the rest of the world, regarding
printer cables.

	Repeat: Nothing special about a A500 printer cable. 
1.3 Epson driver on Extras is the driver you need.
