I'm beginning to lose faith here.

I bought an "Amiga printer cable" from Harmony Computers & Electronics in
Brooklyn, NY. It came as an "AMEGA CENTR." cable. All the pins were
connected. It did not work with my LQ-800, which itself doesn't work
well either (extra linefeeds regardless of SW2-8 position!!)

So anyway -- I built my own cable - an IBM cable, gender-mendered,
pins 16 and 23-25 cut. This might not be correct.

My query: how do *you* build your parallel cables?

ANY REPLIES WOULD BE, LIKE, *REALLY* APPRECIATED!
Thankee.
