You are in luck; the dmf32 lp port is fully compatable with the QMS
dataproducts interface...all you need is a cable to go from the db-37 on
the dmf end to a db-50; I believe the correct cable is bc27a from DEC
(also available from Inmac and others), but you should verify that with
someone; I don't have a catalog with me.  We are running exactly that
configuration with our QMS.  You will, of course need a dmf driver which
supports the lp port; there have been many pointers to improved dmf
drivers posted recently; if not, I have one.
