Now, the serial cable for the imagewriter is male on both ends, and the PC serial port is male, also. Someone mentioned that a null-modem adpater would be necessary, but I guessed that all I needed was a female-female connecter. Went down to Radio Shack, and they convinced me not to buy anything. I _really_ would like to hook the Imagewriter up to the IBM, but I won't buy anything until I know EXACTLY what I need. Anyone have any ideas? -- Rafael Juarez, Society for Creative Anachronism Haven's End, Barony of Dragonship Haven, East Kingdom DKONERDING@EAGLE.WESLEYAN.EDU "I have a cause: obscenity.
